The best-selling, award-winning team of Yolen and Teague are back with another playful dinosaur tale--this time about a sick dinosaur child who catches the flu and must go to the doctor."Si un dinosaurio pesca un resfriado,¿lloriquea y gime porque ha estornudado?" Igual que sucede con los chicos, a los dinosaurios no les gusta nada enfermarse. Y visitar al doctor puede dar mucho miedo. Pero entonces, ¿cómo hacen los dinosaurios para curarse? Deben tomar mucho jugo y descansar todo lo que puedan; y deben portarse bien en el consultorio porque los doctores saben lo que hacen. Yolen y Teague retratan muy bien el miedo que tienen los chicos cuando se enferman y los hacen sentirse bien por medio de versos graciosos e ilustraciones maravillosas.
