Hot Take

Dinosaurs will never let you down. People of all ages are fascinated by them. Dinosaurs fly, swim, and stomp. They encourage digging in dirt to find their bones. And they have cool names that draw attention to pronunciation and spelling, like Velociraptor, Spinosaurus, and Tyrannosaurus Rex. Add pajamas to the mix and you’ve got a winning program—any time of day, any time of year!

In a dinosaur program, you get to stomp and chomp with your claws and jaws. You get to flap and soar and splash and more! Limitless books are there to explore. So what are you waiting for? Kids gotta ROAR!

Give Your Input – Which animal is best?

Quote of the Week

I don’t want it to rain cats and dogs, I want hippos and elephants for once!

Catherine Macorol

Featured Creator

Catherine’s debut picture book, A IS FOR AXOLOTL: AN UNUSUAL ANIMAL ABC, just won a 2025 Charlotte Award. The Charlotte Awards from the New York State Reading Association go to works of outstanding literature that create lifelong readers. A IS FOR AXOLOTL is an illuminating peek at unique animals all around the world.

Catherine Macorol is not only an award-winning author and illustrator, she’s also my colleague and friend. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing firsthand how she inspires children with her kindness and creativity. Congratulations, Catherine, on your well-deserved award!
