From the hilarious creator of Unicorn Thinks He's Pretty Great comes this silly-but-sweet story about a (not-at-all-scary) monster who tries to play with his prey!

Rah! Buddy's a monster, and he's hungry! Time for all cute little bunnies to hop into his mouth. "Oh no!" they say. "There are cupcakes in the oven!" They offer Buddy some, and he becomes too full to eat the bunnies. He'll have to come back tomorrow. And so it goes between Buddy and the bunnies -- they take him swimming, after which he is too tired to eat; they take him on all the rides at a carnival, after which he is too dizzy to eat; they even form a Buddy fan club... and who could eat their own fan club? Eventually Buddy realizes that the bunnies have trickled him. The bunnies aren't food at all--they are friends!

PRAISE FOR BOB SHEA:

For DINOSAUR VS. SANTA:
"Flashing expressions that range from fierce scowls and high jubilation to a...grimace of triumph, the energetic urchin gambols across appropriately noisy scatterings of crayons, craft sticks, glitter and various (secular) signs of the season placed by the author against backgrounds of solid color alternating with plaid and other patterns. "DINOSAUR WINS!" --Publishers Weekly


For DINOSAUR VS. THE LIBRARY:
“Story time may have conquered Dinosaur, but with boisterous noise and boundless energy, Shea’s Dinosaur titles will never fail to be read-aloud hits. Dinosaur wins again!”--Kirkus


For DINOSAUR VS. THE POTTY:
*"In his second adventure, Shea's fearsome red protagonist does battle with lemonade stands, sprinklers, juice boxes, pools, and puddles. As in the book's predecessor, the dinosaur always emerges victorious-- 'And still doesn't need to use the potty!' But is his victory dance really something else? Shea's bold collages are as in-your-face charming as his energetic hero, whose exuberance and stubborn avoidance of the potty will elicit both empathy and laughter."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)


For DINOSAUR VS. BEDTIME:
*" Kids will be only too happy to capitulate to this irresistible package."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
