Purchase options and add-ons


Dinosaur is getting ready for Santa! He tackles many challenges--decorating, making presents for Mom and Dad, trying not to be naughty--and defeats each one with his trademark ROAR! But on Christmas Eve, when he hears some rustling downstairs, he can't resist a peek. Will our feisty red friend meet his match in the man in the red suit? Complete with sparkly silver foil on the front cover and a removable letter to Santa for little ones to personalize, this funny and sweet book is a must-have for the holiday season.

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreS-Roar! Roar! Roar! Feisty little Dinosaur comes out on top of every challenge: writing a letter to Santa, decorating the tree, and making presents for his parents. But the outcome isn't so certain when it comes to being extra good, not to mention staying awake on Christmas Eve. Will Santa put Dinosaur on his naughty list? Never fear, Dinosaur wins every round. Energetic, retro mixed-media illustrations depict Dinosaur in a series of fabulous Christmas sweaters, smothering the bottom third of the tree in ornaments and lights, and roaring his way through the best Christmas ever. A must for most collections.-Eva Mitnick, Los Angeles Public Library α(c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.

From Booklist

In this follow-up to Dinosaur vs. the Potty (2010), the rebellious little monster creature gets ready for Christmas. Can he write a letter to Santa? Yes. Roar! Dinosaur wins. It is the same with decorations, gifts for Mom and Dad, and more. Roar! The red and green colors make this a fun Christmas read-aloud for toddlers who will recognize how hard it is not to get things wrong as tension rises during holiday preparations. The climax is when the choo-choo that Dinosaur asked for in his letter appears. Preschool. --Hazel Rochman

He has met Al Roker and Fonzie.

His stories, artwork and characters have also appeared on Nick Jr. and Noggin. He was even on Noggin, reading one of his books to Ryan, his little boy.

Bob likes to speak in the third person.

Bob has written several children's books, including New Socks, Big Plans, which was illustrated by Lane Smith, Dinosaur vs. Bedtime, Race You To Bed, and Oh Daddy.

Dinosaur vs. Bedtime was one of Amazon's Top 10 Picture Books of the year, and a Horn Book Magazine best of 2008.

He lives in Connecticut with his wife Colleen and his son, Ryan. He and Colleen own Perfectly Nice, a graphic design studio.

Bob enjoys cake.

    My sister in law gave my daughter Dinosaur Vs Bedtime for Christmas in 2011 and she fell in love. She loves all the Dinosaur Vs Books and this one is no different. Bright fun pictures and a delightful story make this story fun for me to watch her read or read to her. Would highly recommend this and all the other Dinosaur Vs books.

    My son loves this series, and when I saw this I knew he had to have it! The story is adorable, as usual. Dinosaur is so much like my four-year-old at Christmastime. It's fun to hear him talk about the things he and Dinosaur do to get ready for Christmas.

    Bonus! I didn't know it came with a paper for a letter to Santa! So this would make an awesome gift in preparation for Christmas. My son's birthday is on 12/16, so I just gave it to him then.

    Highly recommended to parents of little dinosaurs.

    This book, like all of the Dinosaur Vs. books, is totally awesome! I love Bob Shea as a writer. He's got enough humor in his books that the kids get the giggles, but the stories don't get old for the adults. Another excellent, if seasonal, buy.

    My son loves this book! He was so excited when it came in the mail. He has autism and wasn't very interested in reading until we found the Dinosaur vs. books. He is so happy and excited to read them and he is now starting to read other books as well, when before he had little interest and would get upset about it. Dinosaur vs. Santa was the newest addition to his book collection and he hasn't put it down since it got here yesterday! (Except to go to school). This book is great and I definitely recommend it.

    I got these books for both my grandchildren, girl and boy, and they love them. You have to be prepared to ROAR like a dinosaur :) I got the cardboard because they are toddlers and not ready for paper pages...wish more of the series came in cardboard, I would have them all.
  • Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2016
    I was hoping to love this more, but I don't. My kid didn't pick it out a lot over December, but we did read it 2 or 3 times. This is our only dinosaur vs. book, and the concept intrigued me, but I didn't find it to be as cute as it looks.

    Great Christmas story - it is what is on every child's mind. This will be a book to bring out every Christmas until my grandson is uninterested in it, which may be never!
