Oh dinosaur, oh dinosaur,
There are no dinos any more.


The skies are clear of pterodact,
(A very sorry dino fact.)


No more velociraptor gnashes,
No more allosaurus crashes.


No more pounding thunder feet
Of Rex on his revolting beat.


Oh dinosaur, oh dinosaur,
There are no dinos any more.

This is my entry for this year's raab prize contest. It's a children's illustration contest held yearly for UCONN students in conjunction with the Connecticut Children's Book Fair. The poem is the subject and we were asked to do a two page spread. In the layout, it will look like this: [link]

This is also a class assignment, so wish me luck in both the contest and the grade :lol:

A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.
Don't plan the plan if you can't follow through.
All that matters is taking matters into your own hands.
So please give me a sec to catch my breath.

From a graphic design perspective, you might want to increase the font size on the layout, it sort of looks like it isn't filling much of the space, and I think it would balance the layout better (plus kids books generally shoot for large text).

Super cute illustration though!
