Overview
The How Do Dinosaurs collection brings together six bestselling picture books by Jane Yolen and Mark Teague, following a lovable cast of dinosaur children through the everyday moments every family knows. From bedtime and mealtimes to first days of school, doctor visits, colors, numbers, and heartfelt hugs, each rhyming story turns ordinary routines into playful lessons about kindness, patience, and good manners. Bright, larger-than-life illustrations of tyrannosaurs, triceratops, and pteranodons fill every page with humor and warmth. Perfect for read-aloud time, this brand new paperback set is a wonderful gift for toddlers and young readers ages 3 to 7.

About the Books
Since the first title debuted more than two decades ago, the How Do Dinosaurs series has become a modern classic of American picture books, pairing Jane Yolen's bouncy, rhyming verse with Mark Teague's exuberant, larger-than-life dinosaur illustrations. This six-book collection gathers the heart of the series into one brand new paperback set, ideal for building a home library or classroom collection that grows with a child. Each story opens with a mischievous question: does a dinosaur stomp, pout, or slam its tail? The playful setup lets little ones giggle at outrageous dino behavior before the gentle turn on the final pages, where every dinosaur settles down, shares, listens, or shows love just like a well-behaved child. Topics range from nighttime routines and mealtime manners to learning colors and numbers, starting school, getting over a cold, and expressing affection to family. The repeating rhyme-and-reveal structure gives children a comforting rhythm to anticipate, while Teague's detailed, textured paintings reward repeat readings with new details to spot on every page. Because each dinosaur in the illustrations is a distinct, named species, the books double as an early introduction to paleontology alongside their social-emotional lessons. Parents and teachers have long relied on this series to open conversations about behavior without lecturing, letting humor do the teaching. Collected together, these six stories offer a well-rounded early-years curriculum in miniature, covering sleep, food, health, school, learning, and love, wrapped in the reassuring silliness that has made this series a shelf staple in homes and classrooms.
