STOP! DANGEROUS DAVE HAS OFFICIALLY CLEARED THIS PAGE OF ALL DINOSAURS. If you're looking for a dinosaur book... keep looking. Dangerous Dave has personally removed every single prehistoric creature from these pages. This is definitely, absolutely, 100% NOT a dinosaur book. (Or is it?)

THE NEW CLASSIC FOR FANS OF GROVER'S "MONSTER AT THE END OF THIS BOOK!"

This book merges the meta, fourth-wall-breaking fun of Grover's There's a Monster at the End of This Book! with the "don't do it" humor of The Book With No Pictures and the high-energy interactivity of Don't Push the Button. Look! There Are No Dinos Inside Of This Book brings that same interactive silliness to a new generation—with a prehistoric twist!

HILARIOUS INTERACTIVE READ-ALOUD THAT TALKS BACK — AND MAKES KIDS PLAY ALONG! 

From best-selling author Jimmy Vee comes a dino-sized interactive experience that will have kids pointing, shouting, and giggling from start to finish! Dangerous Dave is absolutely sure there are no dinosaurs inside this book. After all, he removed them himself. Or so he says... But look closely—do you see that tail? That footprint? That giant bite mark? The more Dave insists there are no dinos, the more clues kids will spot that prove otherwise. 

Can you show Dave that dinos do exist between the covers of this comedic caper, or are those dinosaurs really history?

DON'T JUST READ THE STORY—BE PART OF IT!

"What's with those binoculars? What do you see? You think you see something? Then show it to me! You just saw a dinosaur wiggling its butt? Then touch on the page where it did this butt strut!"

Questions parents ask

What is the best funny dinosaur book for kids ages 3 to 5?
Look! There Are No Dinos Inside of This Book is one of the funniest interactive dinosaur picture books for kids ages 3–8. It follows Dangerous Dave, a bumbling dino wrangler who insists there are absolutely no dinosaurs in the book, while kids spot the prehistoric evidence hiding on every page. Five-star reviews from Kirkus Reviews, Reedsy Discovery, Readers' Favorite, and The Wishing Shelf.
Is this a good interactive read aloud book for toddlers and kindergartners?
It's one of the best. Every page invites kids to find clues, touch torn paper, and call out Dangerous Dave when he gets it wrong. The rhyming text makes it incredibly fun to read aloud, and the call-and-response format keeps toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergartners actively engaged from start to finish. Teachers use it for storytime specifically because it gets the whole room giggling and participating.
What makes this a unique gift for a child who loves dinosaurs?
Every copy from bellylaughbooks.com can be personally signed and personalized by author Jimmy Vee, something you simply cannot get on Amazon. It's a hardcover, jacketed, autographed book that arrives feeling genuinely special. For a kid who loves dinosaurs, an interactive rhyming story where they get to outsmart the grown-up on every page is about as good as it gets.
Can I get a signed children's book shipped directly from the author?
Yes — that's exactly what we do. Every order from bellylaughbooks.com is signed and personalized by Jimmy Vee before it ships. Just leave the child's first name in your order notes at checkout. This is the only place to get a personalized, autographed copy — it's not available anywhere else.
What age group is this funny picture book best for?
Ages 3–8. It works beautifully as a read-aloud for toddlers and preschoolers who love pointing at things and shouting answers, and the humor is layered enough to keep kids in early elementary school fully entertained. Parents and grandparents consistently say they enjoy it just as much as the kids.
How much does shipping cost for a signed picture book?
