Bookroo's summary

Regina, a spirited young dinosaur, is determined to prove she's not too little to hunt on her own. Armed with a fierce roar and stealthy camouflage, she ventures out alone. But as she encounters massive dinosaurs and fails hilariously at catching prey, Regina wonders if she'll end up as an herbivore. Can she find her way back to the safety of home, or will her quest for independence lead to unexpected discoveries? Join Regina on her adventurous journey filled with laughter and lessons about growing up.

From the publisher

Meet a young dinosaur seeking her independence in this hilarious picture book from the author of WOLF CAMP and SWEETY. When Regina’s mother heads off to hunt, she tells her little dinosaur: stay in the nest and be mama’s good little carnivore. But just who is she calling little?! Regina is big! And she has all the tools to hunt herself: a fear-inducing predator stare, a terrifying roar, and an uncanny ability to camouflage. And so Regina sets off on her first real hunt, all alone. ROAR! Along the way, she meets some truly huge dinosaurs, and hilariously, and miserably, fails at catching anything. What if she has to live her life as an…. herbivore?! Little kids everywhere will recognize themselves in Andrea Zuill’s intrepid young dino–eager for independence, but still very much needing the safety and comfort of home.
