Through rhythmic text and relatable scenarios, it normalizes the idea that emotions are natural and manageable. It is a perfect choice for toddlers and preschoolers who are just beginning to name their feelings. By using dinosaurs as mirrors for human behavior, it provides a safe distance for children to examine their own reactions and learn that their big feelings do not make them bad, just human.
