Groovy Joe: Ice Cream & Dinosaurs Review!

I partnered with Scholastic to offer this giveaway, opinions are my own.

Ready for a FUN book that your kids will enjoy? Groovy Joe: Ice Cream & Dinosaurs is probably that book. It's a great read that my 1st grader just couldn't get enough of!



This book came out on August 30, and is perfect for kids ages 3-6. In the book, a fun-lovin', guitar-strummin', ice-cream-eatin pup takes on three hungry dinosaurs and gets them to enjoy his way of life as they sing and dance and eat ice cream, too!

Groovy Joe was living the dream.
He had a spoon and tub of doggy ice cream.
And he started to sing:
Love my doggy ice cream! Love my doggy ice cream!


If you love Pete the Ca: I Love My White Shoes, you will love this book. Done by Illustrator Tom Lichentenheld and author Eric Litwin (who wrote the first four Pete books), this book combines a great main canine character and all kinds of silliness and fun.

  1. Groovy Joe Ice Cream and Dinosaurs sounds like it would be a fun book to read with my grandchildren. They love books and ice cream and what could be better than to add a few dinosaurs. Thanks for letting us know about this book and the giveaway, too.
