What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is secular and very gentle. There are no depictions of loss, trauma, or significant peril. The approach is metaphorical in the sense that the dinosaur represents a 'super-pet' or a non-traditional friend, but the emotional resolution is entirely hopeful and straightforward.
