# Iamasaurus: A Picture Book - Hardcover

by **Anne Ylvisaker** (Author), **Mark Hoffmann** (Illustrator)

**Award-winning author Anne Ylvisaker and illustrator Mark Hoffmann's picture book romp of a tale about the surprising similarities between dinosaurs and children.**

_Iamasaurus. I am noodlevorous. One of the genus_ Ridiculorous_. Mothers abhor us. Babies adore us. We romp and we stomp and we chomp on the floras._

Turns out kids are not unlike T. rexes. Did you know both creatures share many of the same body parts--maxillae, mandibles, clavicles, ribs. Scapulas, humeri, tibias, fibs? This fun romp of a book will make young readers' inner dinosaurs roar with delight.

**"An amusingly anarchic paleontological primer." --_Kirkus Reviews_**
