Tyrannosaurus Was a Beast

Paperback – March 31, 1992

by Jack Prelutsky (Author), Arnold Lobel (Illustrator)

The author of Something Big Has Been Here describes such prehistoric reptiles as the brachiosaurus--who ""had little to do/but stand with his head in the trees and chew""--and thirteen other ""terrible lizards"" in fun-filled rhyming verse. Reprint.

"In an intriguing combination of fact with rollicking rhyme schemes and full-page portraits, the dinosaurs are rejuvenated once again to amuse and amaze their devoted fans....These poems are readable, quotable, and unforgettable....A wonderful book to savor--again and again."--Horn Book.

From Publishers Weekly

Accompanied by Lobel's imaginative artwork, Prelutsky recounts in typically zippy verse the antics of 14 "terrible lizards." Ages 4-up.
