The Dinosaurs Night Before Christmas

Every Christmas Eve, the dinosaur fossils in the museum come to life to sing, dance, eat gingerbread, and celebrate.

"In this reimagining of the classic 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, the dinosaurs of Dinovember are up to all kinds of holiday mischief!"--

From the creative parents who brought the world the web sensation "Dinovember" comes photographic proof of what toys get up to when the rest of the house is asleep. You might have noticed weird things happening in your house. Unexplainable messes. Food all over the kitchen floor. Who could the culprits be? Dinosaurs! Boasting bright and hilarious photographs, along with a story written from the point of view of an older, wiser sibling, Refe and Susan Tuma's picture book documents a very messy adventure that shows just what the dinosaurs did last night.

The dinosaurs enjoy a variety of Christmas activities, including decorating the town, holding a parade, and receiving gifts from Santa Claws.

What did Santa use to pull his sleigh before he had reindeer? Dinosaurs! Santa Claus reminisces about "the good old days" when dinosaurs pulled his sleigh. The Tyrannosaurus rex wouldn't stop licking Santa, the Pterosaurs flew too high, and the Maiasauras ate presents when no one was looking! Santa thinks the reindeer are a treasure. But when he and his old dinosaur pals look in on a little girl who's sleeping, he admits that sometimes he misses "the good old days."Children will love meeting Santa's prehistoric friends in Jerry Pallotta's silly and sweet new classic. Beautifully illustrated by Howard McWilliam, DINOSAUR CHRISTMAS is a Christmas like no other!

Santa has the flu and the elves are making toy dinosaurs all wrong. Rex and his dog Bones set out to save Christmaswith a little help from their dinosaur friend. Includes an illustrated glossary listing various dinosaurs and their characteristics.

In The Nutcracker's Night Before Christmas preparations for a doomed stage production of the classic ballet goes from terribly bad to ridiculously worse. Sick stagehands, renegade cats, and crashing Christmas trees have everyone sure that the show won't go on. But it's Christmas Eve and help is on the way! Told in verse with wonderful whimsical illustrations, this story hits all the right notes for holiday reading.

When a father stays up late on Christmas Eve to assemble toys, he is amazed to see eight huge dinosaurs land on the roof and a T-Rex come down the chimney.
