Summary- This book is a beginners counting book. Each page would have a dinosaur and a task that dinosaur would be doing. When you turn the page their would be one dinosaur added to the scene so each new page had a new amount of dinosaurs all the way up to 10. An example of a page is "two dinosaurs dancing". Short and simple descriptions of what the dinosaurs are doing while teaching the kids to count.
Extension Activity- Have a worksheet using dinosaurs and put different amounts of dinosaurs at each problem. Then have the kids write how many dinosaurs are in each picture.
You could also do a coloring activity where each part of the picture is assigned a number then each number has a color. The kids follow the color key and have the dinosaur picture colored properly by looking for the numbers.
