Dynomike: Pay It Forward by Frankie B. Rabbit is an interesting children's book that teaches kids the need for giving out without expecting anything in return. It's definitely a great bedtime story. Congratulations to the author on the Botd and thanks for the free copy of the book. Great review.

I really like the idea of this book, as I try to 'pay it forward' myself and have taught my three [now-grown] children to do so, as well. Thanks for the intro!

I like children's books that are fun and educative and this book fits the mold. I agree, it's never too early to teach kids to help others without expecting a reward.

It's good to see a children story book teaching great morals while encouraging reading in a fun way. Nice review!

I appreciate your review. I do disagree with the slang and made up words. These things are part of young childrens' learning process. If not, then how would Dr. Seuss be so popular still? I do love the Dinomike stories. They are cute and a great way to share life lessons with children.

I love this series of books. The illustrations are beautiful and the messages are so important. The idea of looking outside of oneself to help others is so important, so this book helps kids start thinking that way. Thanks for the insight into this book.

The simple word choices would be easy for young children to understand. There are two exceptions - “hangry” (a slang word for “hungry”) and “schnarf” (a made-up word). I don’t think slang or made-up words are appropriate in books for the younger set, since children would get confused.

I agree. I think sometimes authors of children's books don't realize that kids are learning their vocabulary from their stories and can't differentiate between whimsical wordplay and actual words. But, overall, this seems like a lovely and wholesome book. Thank you!

I read another Dynomike book before, and it was super cute. This looks like it meets the same standards. Thanks for the review!

I'll be reading this book to my niece soon, she's currently obsessed with dinosaurs and the message of this book sounds great.

I like the message of this book. Kids should be taught to be kind always and to “pay it forward”. Great book to read for my nephews. Thanks for your review!

I’m always looking for good books to read to my kid, especially ones that are well written and teach good lessons. I may give this one a look. Thanks for the review, bookowlie.

Great book for kids. "Pay it forward". Ut is a complicated philosophy made simple for children's level of understanding. Marvelous cover too. Thanks for this beautiful review.
