Product Description
The dinosaur fossils in the museum come to life (and sing dance and eat gingerbread) in this rollicking twist on the classic poem ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas. And with the enclosed CD children of all ages can enjoy dinosaur-themed Christmas party music and hear the story read aloud by the Today Show’s Al Roker! A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the book goes to support the American Museum of Natural History in New York where the story is set.

My Review: For a different twist on the night before Christmas I would love to recommend the Dinosaurs Night Before Christmas.  This is the night the dinosaurs come alive and party.  Santasaurus even makes a visit!  The attached CD has songs to familiar Christmas tunes with a dinosaur twist to them.  This book and CD make a great Christmas party theme for children.  I plan to use it in my classroom because it fits in well with all the gingerbread activities I do – even dinosaurs love gingerbread men (shaped as Pterosaurs of course)!  The great illustrations by Nathan Hale give you a real feel for the American Museum of Natural History.  Great book and very fun!
