I Want My Book Back

Daryl loves Dinosaurs, but his copy of the book truly belongs to the library, and his cycle of perpetually renewing it hits a snag when someone else places the book on hold. Though he summons all of the dinosaur tricks that the book taught him, roaring and stomping cannot prevent the inevitable: the book must be returned. The book’s fun illustrations emphasize Daryl’s big and scary emotions, including distress, grumpiness, rage, and despair; solace is to be found only somewhere unexpected: in sharing.
