Dinosaurs Crossing the Road Kurt Lietzau

Stop and look both ways before crossing the road.
The friendly dinosaur family is ready to cross the road but before they take their first steps, they sing their favorite song to remind them how to safely get to the other side.

My son, Wyatt, was the inspiration for me to create this book and it would have never been possible with out his help. When Wyatt could barely walk, we went to the park every day and I knew I had to teach him the safety of crossing the road. He inspired me to create the jingle that this book is based off of. As soon as the jingle was finalized, I knew I wanted to create a book.

Couple years after creating the jingle, Wyatt has now helped me bring this book to life. He has had a critical role in deciding what type of theme (dinosaurs are his favorite), picking out the illustrator, and helped make other decisions along the way.

For kids of all ages, this is a jingle that they will love. Everytime I sing this jingle, to various kids of all ages, they quickly catch on and start singing it. It's simple and catchy that any child can learn.

This book is great for:
Babies, newborns, infants, and toddlers as we should read to them every dayChildren just starting to learn to read as it contains almost all sight words, in addition to repeating and rhyming wordsKids that go on walks, play at the park, engage in outdoor activities near roads to learn about street / roadway safetyBirthday and baby shower gifts from parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, and friendsRandom presents for expecting parents, pregnant mothers, newborns, babies, and young childrenDonations to preschools, schools, daycares, and little libraries
