About this listen

Buckle up for a raptor race, train-faring Titanosaurs and (gulp) a taxi-driving T. rex in this hilariously whirlwind poetry collection for fans of Richard Scarry and Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site!

You've never seen a dinosaur that's into driving cars? Well, buckle up! Brontosaurus, Triceratops, Pterodactyl and T. rex are all here to show off their driving, flying and diving skills in this riotous book of poems about dinosaurs and their favorite things-that-go! From flighty Bambiraptor's traffic chopper to hardheaded Pachycephalosaurus's garbage truck to mama Maiasaura's kid-carting minivan, and even to the stars beyond — these dinos on the go have no time to slow down.

Critic Reviews

One of the Evanston Public Library's 101 Great Books for Kids of 2025
One of Poets.org's 2025 Featured Fall Books for Young Readers


"Clever, varied verses set a jaunty beat while offering colorful commentary on the action . . . Readers meet not only well-known dinos but also Trachodon, Aquilops (one of whom uses a wheelchair), Tuarangisaurus, and others. The entertaining, Richard Scarry–inflected art is colorful and busy, with many small details repaying scrutiny — newspaper vending machines, volcanic explosions, and more — and driving youngsters to repeat reading. A delightful combo of fun and facts about reptiles on the road." Kirkus Reviews

"Big, busy cartoon illustrations put exhilarated-looking dinosaurs at the controls of race cars, motorcycles, trains, helicopters, and a great variety of other vehicles to reflect Levinson’s bouncy, free-spirited rhymes . . . A dino-delight." —Booklist

"Dinos That Drive is the most fun I've had with a book in ages! Levinson's hilarious poems are pitch-perfect, and Harbin's gleeful illustrations will have you poring over every detail again and again!" —Kenn Nesbitt, former Children's Poet Laureate, author of More Bears! and Revenge of the Lunch Ladies

"A crowd-pleasing book of clever poems full of dino facts and fun!" —Diana Murray, author of Dinosaur Day from the best-selling Unicorn Day series

"Dinosaurs that drive race cars? Who knew? And riverboats and rocket ships, too? Suzy Levinson brings us a roaring new collection of Jurassic rhymes that reveal the truth (at least according to Suzy) about how our dinosaur friends actually got around town!" —D.J. Steinberg, best-selling author of the Here I Come! series

"Levinson is a master of rhyme, repetition, rhythm, alliteration, and wordplay — often combined in the same short and clever poem. If you took Shel Silverstein and Richard Scarry and had them create a book about dinosaurs, it would be Dinos That Drive!" —Janet Wong, Winner of the NCTE Excellence in Poetry for Children Award
