A Unicorn, a Dinosaur, and a Shark Walk into a Book by Jonathan Fenske


I think the title says it all. But what happens once a unicorn, a dinosaur, and shark walk into the book? 

Thoughts: Too funny! I think this will be a fun storytime book, but with a slightly older audience, say kids around four and five years old. A Unicorn, a Dinosaur, and a Shark Walk Into a Book would also be a hit with younger elementary students. The illustrations are colorful and I love the use of speech bubbles. With five characters, this book would be a great reader's theater title. Pair with More Bears! by Kenn Nesbitt, The Bear Who Wasn't There by LeUyen Pham, You Don't Want a Unicorn! by Ame Dyckman, You Don't Want a Dragon! by Ame Dyckman, or Kitties on Dinosaurs by Michael Slack

Themes: Intrusive Narrators, Unicorns, Dinosaurs, Sharks
