Dinopotamus goes to school was a really cute book that I think would be aimed at the younger children. My grandchildren are older, but I do have one that should be here in the next couple of months. I will be getting this book to read to her after she gets here.

I enjoy this author and the books that she writes, I think you will too.

Dinopotamus Goes to School is the first book in the Dinopotamus series by Lois Wickstrom. It is a interesting children’s storybook, with cute (naïve style) illustrations which accompany the story.
Dinopotamus wants to be like all the other children- but has trouble fitting in due to his differences. The children help him to become included. The story is sweet, with lessons on learning to count, communication, accepting differences, kindness, friendship, determination, and wanting to learn/the joy that can come from learning.
This is a very quick and easy read, my grandson enjoyed the story.
Happy reading.

This is an amazing story of being different and wanting to fit in. Love how the author opens your imagination on how it would be for a dinosaur to be in school. This book touches on some counting and understanding how to communicate in different ways. Recommend for all readers.

The author’s use of simple, clear language makes the story accessible to young readers, while the illustrations bring the characters to life (and very charming child-like drawings). The story’s themes of inclusivity, empathy, and friendship are valuable lessons for children of all ages.

The character of Dinopotamus is particularly well-developed, conveying a sense of wonder and curiosity that is relatable to young readers. His enthusiasm for learning is contagious, inspiring the children to be more open-minded and accepting.

I have been slowly working my way through Loi’s books and enjoying my time reading them with my grandbabies who enjoy them.
Dinopotamus Goes to School is not only a story but this book teaches some counting and differences between each other. It teaches kids to be inclusive with one another, doesn’t matter how many toes or what colour you are. Kids don’t have preconceived ideas at this young age and reinforcement like the messages in Loi’s stories are sorely needed in this day and age.
The colourful illustrations bring this picture book story to life.

What a cute story. He just wants to fit in and be like the kids. They do their best to help him. They even teach him to use a communication device. It almost reminds me of how our kids with autism want to fit in. I loved this story. I find the artwork helps the kids relate too. My grandsons loved it when I read them the story. My younger grandson is very into dinosaurs. He wants a dinosaur to take school. This is another winner for our family library.

Dinopotamus watches the children. He tries to do what they do. He follows them to school. He doesn’t fit through the door, so he climbs in the window. The children count their toes. They have five on each foot. He has three. The children see that he wants to learn, just like they do. They all learn together.
