It's Friday, and dinosaurs have invaded the library! All month long we'll be celebrating Dinovember in the children's department. From story time, displays, programs and some fun pictures on social media, we'll be having a ton of Dino Fun this month! A couple of weeks ago I shared some of my favorite dinosaur picture books. This week I've got five Dino-centric chapter books. Click on the title to be directed to our catalog to place a hold.
