Bookroo's summary
Meet Samanthasaurus Rex, a T. rex who prefers painting to hunting and words over roars. Her family worries she won't fit the fierce leader mold. But when calamity hits, it's Sam's unconventional talents that might just save the day. Can she show her family that strength comes in many forms?
From the publisher
Samanthasaurus Rex is a funny and empowering picture book featuring a fresh new character: a girl dinosaur who marches to the beat of her own drum.Samanthasaurus Rex is not your typical T. rex. She’d rather paint animals than chase them. She prefers sorting bones to gnawing on them. Bite and fight? Nope. Sam uses her words.Naturally, her parents and brother worry–will she ever be a strong, fearsome leader like a true T. rex? But when disaster strikes, it is Samanthasaurus Rex who saves the day–in her own unique way.
