Dino Soccer was written by Lisa Wheeler and illustrated by Barry Gott. This book is a fantasy book depicting the personification of dinosaurs. It was written for children in elementary school. It was published by Carolrhoda Books in 2009. The main theme of this book is friendship and spirited competition. The main characters are the grazers and the biters. The Grazers are in gold, and they take on the blue-uniformed Biters in a soccer match. The vegetarian and meat-eating dino players pass, steal, and trap the ball as they travel up and down the field. As the game progresses, the competition is fierce and the score teeters back and forth. At the end of the day, the Biters win, but the defeated Grazers refuse to give up. At the end of the story, they hint that they will meet their opponents on the baseball field for a spirited game of Dino-ball. This book is great for teaching about herbivore and carnivore dinosaurs and their different names.
