     The reason why dinosaurs became extinct is still not quite clear. But Dinosaurs Love Underpants offers and interesting theory.  In this funny rhyming book, we learn that dinosaurs were all wiped out because they were fighting amongst themselves over pairs of underwear.

It all began when caveman

Felt embarrassed in the nude.

So someone dreamed up underpants

To stop them from looking crude

     One day, as the caveman were walking outside the forest, the scariest and meanest of all dinos, the T-Rex, saw them and starting chasing them. But not to eat them, he just wanted their underpants.  Of course the underpants were not quite his size so they ripped and made him trip.  Soon, underpants fever spread through dino camp and all the dinos where running wild chasing after caveman to steal their underpants. When they couldn't get anymore from them, the dinos started fighting each other during The Mighty Underpants War.  "The fighting got so crazy, all the dinos were wiped out!"

So when you put your undies on.

Always treat them with great care.

Don't forget briefs saved Mankind.

They're not just underwear!

     Dinosaurs Love Underpants is a crowd pleaser, especially for with all those dino obsessed kids out there.  They'll get to see all their favorite types of dinosaur as well as some very entertaining illustrations.    Definitely a fun one.
