Once again Tatsuya Miyanishi amazes with a wonderful picture book about caring in the form of one giant dinosaur and three little ones. The colors and block drawings capture the eye. The simplicity is perfect for a picture book and avoids being overwhelming. Tyrannosaurus learns a valuable lesson of friendship. He discovers politeness and becomes fiercely protective of this small friends. The imagery of the little homalocephales taking care of this large Tyrannosaurus, of them cuddling together, and of the T-Rex fighting are all marvelous. This is a great picture book to teach little ones how to treat their friends.
If you're a chef, a baker, a person who enjoys cooking this book is for you. If you're a sailor, a pirate, a lover of the ocean and sails this book is for you. It was hilarious and sad. Adventurous and yummy. I couldn't put it down. It's a very interesting historical fiction take on the opium and tea trade. On how pirates and privateers ruled the oceans. And how the British ruled them all. I loved the female pirate captain and the stubborn chef who cooks for her. The chef's take on how the story plays out is amazing and he has some wonderful one liners. A wonderful read, a great tale, with a touch of romance, knitting, and sign language.
