If you are in a hurry, you might pass by Dinglewood without paying much attention. But if you listen carefully, you just might hear the pitter-patter of small feet and the chattering of tiny voices. Turn the page—There's a world of adventure here in Dinglewood for you to discover!

If you met a dinosaur, what would you do? Play hide-and-seek or go to the zoo? Who knows if their skin was pink, purple, or blue? Or if they squawked, roared, or mooed? Did they polish their nails and feathers and scales, and sharpen their teeth with the ends of their tails? When you open this book of dinosaur rhymes, you'll meet some of those creatures from long-ago times!

Have you thought of a goat . . .
. . . in a fancy coat?
Or a hen that could only SNORE?

Children will enjoy and be inspired by many short poems and beautiful illustrations.

A Pineapple Dream and Other Nonsense is a beautifully illustrated full-color book of poems. They will delight your child and encourage their imagination as they read or listen to the poems and see the detailed drawings.

It's Nonsense, it's Fun,
It tickles you tongue.
There's a mouse that knits
And a cat that sits.
There's a whale you'll adore
And a whole lot more.

So, my friends, find a cozy nook
And plunge headlong into this book.
