Dinosaur Christmas

Written by Jerry Pallotta, Illustrated by Howard McWilliam

What did Santa use before the reindeer to fly his sleigh? Why, dinosaurs, of course. Some of the dinosaurs didn’t work very well. The Tyrannosaurus Rex kept licking him. That was kind of scary. The Pterosaurs flew too high and that was scary too. He has all sorts of adventures with the dinosaurs, but they just didn’t fly the sleigh too well. So now Santa has reindeer. Although sometimes he remembers that it was fun and exciting when the dinosaurs did that job. This is a very fun Christmas book that is full of information.
