Description
If you could have any dinosaur body part, which would you choose
What if you woke up one morning and you had sprouted a dinosaur body part overnight
Sandra Markle's bestselling What If You Had... series is now in Scholastic's Level 2 reader format! Perfect for kids just learning to read independently, this imaginative book explores what would happen if you looked in the mirror and saw a dinosaur body part instead of your own!
From a Velociraptor's sharp sickle-tipped toes to a T. rex's giant curved teeth, and from the body armor of an Ankylosaurus to the long neck of a Brachiosaurus -- discover what it would be like if you had one of these wild dinosaur parts! Readers will also learn what makes a dinosaur a dinosaur and why they aren't around today.
Reviews
Praise for What If You Had Animal Teeth!:
"Will surely satisfy animal enthusiasts and trivia lovers, and dentists and parents will appreciate the mention of ways to keep human chompers healthy." -- Booklist
"It's a hilarious and instructive combination that makes it clear just how variable and individually suited this aspect of anatomy is, and the art takes the concept and runs -- well, chomps -- with it." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"Delightful illustrations and factual presentations of animals make this a valuable purchase for early elementary classrooms and libraries." -- Library Media Connection
"The lively text, photographs, and quirky illustrations charmingly tell a great tooth story." -- International Reading Association
