About Time Flies

Parents need to know that there is nothing offensive about this book, but for children sensitive to depictions of dinosaurs, the close-ups of dinos may be a little intense.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about what they think happened. How did the bird go back in time? Or was he just imagining? Or was the author just imagining? They may want to look at other books that are obviously fantasy and talk about other ways of pretending (pretending at play, pretending on TV, etc.).
