Benny Brontosaurus Goes to a Party.BENNY BRONTOSAURUS Brontosaurus: see Apatosaurus. GOES TO A PARTY! By Rey Ortega and Lauren Everelt Farnsworth We were thrilled to receive another children's book from SK Publishing. Benny Brontosaurus Goes to a Party! is about a herbivorous herbivorous /her·biv·o·rous/ (her-biv´ah-rus) subsisting upon plants. dinosaur who is new to the neighborhood and is invited to a Tyrannosaurus Tyrannosaurus (tīrăn'ōsôr`əs, tĭr–) [Gr.,=tyrant lizard], member of a family, Tyrannosauridae, of bipedal carnivorous saurischian dinosaurs characterized by having strong hind limbs, a muscular tail, and short Rex birthday celebration. Benny is very worried that he won't fit in. Though the authors never use the words "vegetarian" or "vegan," Benny turns down a slice of the birthday cake because it is made with pterosaur pterosaur (tĕr`əsôr') [Gr., = winged lizard], extinct flying reptile (commonly called pterodactyl [Gr., = wing finger]) of the order Pterosauria, common in the late Triassic and Cretaceous periods, from approximately 228 to 65 million milk and velociraptor eggs. Our 8-year-old test subject said, "I liked that story. He's a vegan.... That story's short." We and our young test subject wait anxiously for the next installment in the SKP Vegetarian Children's book series. Benny Brontosaurus Goes to a Party! (ISBN 978-097283405-6) is published by SK Publishing and Graphics. To purchase this book, visit <www.sunkingpublishing.com>. Charles Stahler. |
