PreS-Gr 1–Leilong the brontosaurus works as a school bus, picking up children all over town and bringing them to school. Though the kids love this unusual transportation method, Leilong’s size wreaks havoc on the road as he steps on cars, destroys bridges, and gets tangled in electrical wires.
VERDICT This reissue, translated by Helen Wang and formerly known as Gus, the Dinosaur Bus, remains a fun and silly tale for dinosaur aficionados who require no explanation for why there is a city-dwelling brontosaurus.
