This is a delightful children’s book that takes readers on a heartwarming journey filled with bravery and friendship through the eyes of Kody, a spirited dinosaur. The narrative artfully captures the challenges and fears of being separated from a loved one, all while imparting valuable life lessons.

This is a really cute story about a stuffed animal who gets separated from his boy and the adventures he has to get back to him. Kody wakes up on the airplane being carried but it’s not Axel who’s carrying him! How will Kody get back to Axel?! Perry-Knights does a wonderful job of showing children it’s okay to be scared and go through a gamut of emotions. I loved the creativity of this story and the wonderfully bright illustrations. And it’s always fun to think of what our stuffed animals do when we aren’t around 😉

Kody gets left on the plane and goes on a mighty adventure. He shares how you can have an adventure also. I love this little story. It’s entertaining and teaches a really fun lesson. I loved the little lesson on counting to 10 in Italian at the end. Always dream. It has bright pictures and a story that will keep the kids engaged. It was a winner in my house.
