Dinopotamus watches the children. He tries to do what they do. He follows them to school. He doesn’t fit through the door, so he climbs in the window. The children count their toes. They have five on each foot. He has three. The children see that he wants to learn, just like they do. They all learn together.
It’s opposite day at Dinopotamus’ school. The other kids get easy puzzles, like fill the glass and open the door. The teacher asks Dinopotamus to bring her the big box. What will he do? Dinopotamus is not a typical student.
Opposite day means you get to break rules and disobey instructions.
But only if you get it right. Or maybe you need to get it wrong.
When it’s naptime, Dinopotamus always gets the warm spot in the room. He decides to let the children have his favorite spot. But the spot is no longer warm. This is a mystery. Together, Dinopotamus and the children discover that it’s always warm where Dinopotamus sleeps. He lies down on the children’s favorite spot during story time, making it warm for the children’s naptime.
