56177,Danny and the Dinosaur ,Danny and the Dinosaur ,0060224657,,45.00,15.00,HarperCollins,6-Aug-58,精装,64,,,Danny and the Dinosaur , From School Library Journal Kindergarten-Grade 3-Four complete books by Syd Hoff from HarperCollins' I Can Read series are included here. One of the dinosaurs in the museum comes to life and spends the day with a young boy and his friends in Danny and the Dinosaur (HarperCollins， 1986). In Happy Birthday， Danny and the Dinosaur! (HarperCollins， 1995)， the dinosaur is back to celebrate Danny's sixth birthday. The dinosaur welcomes a vacation when Danny and the Dinosaur Go to Camp (HarperCollins， 1996)， and he doesn't seem to mind when all the kids and the camp counselor ride on his back after a tiring hike. Sammy and the Seal (HarperCollins， 2000) tells the story of a seal on an adventure out of the zoo and into the town， including learning to read and write at school. Peter Lorangis and Charles Mintz alternate telling the stories using delightful voices and clear narration， perfect for young listeners. There are no page turn signals or sound effects， but whimsical musical accompaniment adds to the playfulness of the stories. The only thing missing is the charming and comical illustrations that make the stories so much fun to read. The wonderful narration and music make the audiocassette a joy to listen to， but if you don't want to miss out on the visual humor have the books handy for read-alongs.April R. Mazza， Wayland Free Public Library， MACopyright 2003 Reed Business Information， Inc. --This text refers to the Audio Cassette edition. From AudioFile Danny and the lovable dinosaur， who leaves the museum to play with Danny and his friends， are the focus of three of four stories on this audiobook. The fourth is about Sammy the Seal's day away from the zoo. The stories are simple and cheerful， concentrating on children's quotidian activities. There is no violence， and everyone behaves well throughout. The stories are read clearly and relatively slowly by Peter Lorangis and Charles Mintz， who both add just the right number of funny voices to keep things engaging. The simple text does make one wish for an accompanying book with pictures to follow. Nonetheless， this is a nice collection， just right for the under-6 set.
