From the parents who brought us the web sensation "Dinovember," comes photographic proof of what mischief toy dinosaurs can get up to at school.
Every November, writer and social media master Refe Tuma and his wife, Susan, work into the night to bring their four children scenes from the secret lives of their toys--specifically the nighttime antics of their plastic dinosaurs. But in the follow-up to the hit What the Dinosaurs Did Last Night, these scampish dinosaurs make the trip to school, hidden in a kid's backpack. Each scene is photographed in meticulous detail, letting viewers joyfully suspend disbelief and think to themselves--just LOOK at what these diminutive dinos did at school!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The Tumas' plastic toy dinosaurs are at it again; previously seen in 2015's What the Dinosaurs Did Last Night, they're now busy wreaking havoc at school. As the creatures make their way through the building, the Tumas stage photographed scenes of the dinos covered with feathers and paint in the art room, wielding paper swords in the library, and embroiled in a spaghetti-laden cafeteria food fight, among other scenarios. The compositions are excellent, the props adorable (tiny lab coats in the science room, a mop-turned-wig for a T. rex), and the hyperbolic narration sustains a fever pitch ("If your teacher find dinosaurs running wild in her classroom, she'll put them in the drawer of no return"). But it's not quite enough to prevent a sense of sameness from setting in as the story moves from mess to mess. Ages 4 8.
