This ALSC post about Dino-vember inspired me to do a dinosaur display and a “Which dinosaur are you?” sticker vote this month. (Books for Indigenous Peoples’ month, also November, are displayed on an all-audiences display just outside the children’s room, at the bottom of the stairs.) Dinosaur illustrations are from the American Museum of Natural History; for extra facts and pronunciation, I referenced The Dinosaur Awards by Barbara Taylor (Frances Lincoln Children’s Books, 2021).
