I Want That Love

Although Tyrannosaurus storms around saying that power is everything in the world, he realizes he is getting weaker with age. After his tail gets bitten in a run-in with Masiakasaurus, some young Triceratops nurse him back to health. Touched by their innocent hearts, Tyrannosaurus begins to feel love for these new friends–even though he might have eaten them under different circumstances! So when two Giganotosaurus attack the group, Tyrannosaurus fights them off, holding the children tightly to his body, and sacrificing himself in order to protect them from the Giganotosaurus. The third title in this acclaimed series, I Want That Love explains that love is far more important than power.

Violence isn't the answer...love is always the answer. 

I totally understand the message that this book was trying to get across and it has DINOSAURS, so I honestly thought this would be a slam dunk but it was just ok. 

I thought the story of the Tyrannosaurus was too much and the path from the story to the moral was just too distant. If the story was shortened and maybe tweaked some it could work wonderfully but as of now it is just okay. Nothing to rave about.
