The Funniest Dinosaur Book Ever!

Joseph Rosenbloom. Sterling Publishing (NY), $0 (24pp) ISBN 978-0-8069-6624-3

Take almost any elephant joke, substitute the word ""dinosaur,'' and that's the source for most of the little ditties in this book. But that doesn't mean they aren't just the kinds of worn-out jokes that seem to appeal to children most: ``When a dinosaur goes into a restaurant, where does it sit? Anywhere it wants.'' However, there are a couple indigenous to the breed, especially one about the mixing of Tyrannosaurus Rex with a cowboy hat. (What do you get? Tyrannosaurus Tex!) Wilhelm's picturesof giggling beasts, shivering bones and children telling jokes to each otherare by far the freshest part of this package. No ages given. (January)
