5.0

“The story about 3 "chicks" (two ducks and one dino, as the title suggests) who are a little scared their very first night without mom in the next is sweet and the true source of the scary noise is a fun twist, but the illustrations on this one take the cake. Seems great for kids who have night time fears!”

4.0

“Great book about facing their fears (especially at bedtime!) with a funny twist. Really cute illustrations! *SPOILER* The only thing is, it didn't quite make sense to me that the ducks didn't already know about the noise if they've been sleeping in their mom's nest all together growing up...”
