Book Review

he clever rhyming text flows beautifully and makes reading aloud an absolute joy

Laurie:
I loved this book because it was really funny and exciting. My favourite part was all the rhyming words—they made the story fun to read out loud with my mummy, and I found myself joining in. The bright, colourful pictures were also fun and helped bring the dinosaur to life. I wanted to look at every page again and again!

Mum:
This is a delightful book that captures a child’s imagination from beginning to end. The engaging story keeps young readers entertained, while the clever rhyming text flows beautifully and makes reading aloud an absolute joy.

The rhythm and rhyme quickly became a favourite in our house, encouraging my child to join in and anticipate the next line.

The vibrant, eye-catching illustrations perfectly complement the story, adding extra excitement and helping to keep little readers engaged throughout, I would highly recommend it to families looking for an entertaining and engaging picture book.

About the Book

What would you do if a little dinosaur followed you home from the park? You’d look after him, wouldn’t you?

You’d make him a cosy bed in your shed, and give him lots of tickles and cuddles.

But what if the dinosaur was missing his mum? Could you bear to let him go?

This fabulous, funny story about love and caring will tug your heartstrings and tickle your funny bones!
