T-Rex Trick or Treats by: Lois G. Grambling

I wasn't very intrigued by this book. It was a story of Halloween and how T-Rex wanted to be something scary but he realized all of his friends were wearing what he wanted to so he just walked around with a big frown on his face all night. No one thought he was scary with the frown on his face, but as the night went on and he got candy he started to smile. Then at the end his friends and other trick or treaters tell him how scary he looks when he smiles because his big sharp teeth are sticking out. I thought it was kind of a boring read and didn't bring out much in me as a reader. I don't think children would really enjoy this story or be able to relate to it very well. The only thing they could get out of it is that it's better to be happy than walk around with a frown on your face all day but that is such an elementary concept I don't think it would do the children any good.
