The Thin Red Line

Every evening at closing time I go around gathering up any and all stray books that have been left here there or wherever.   (We scan them all in case any might be listed as lost or missing before putting them back into the rotation to be re-shelved.)    And one Sunday afternoon awhile back I picked up  Patrick’s Dinosaurs on the Internet by writer Carol Carrick and illustrator David Milgrim.    The bright and comical illustrations appealed to me and I set it aside to be included in some Easy Picture Book roundup or another.

In reading the book and the cover blurbs I learned that Patrick’s Dinosaurs on the Internet was actually a sequel to two books written in the 1980’s by Carol Carrick and her late husband the illustrator Donald Carrick.   I fetched the two earlier works the next time I shelved in Easy Picture Books and am thrilled to share all three of them with you today on The Thin Red Line.
