Dino Dad: Big School Talent Show

About this book

A magical dino-tastic adventure series from children's TV superstar Andy Day, with amazing illustrations from illustrator powerhouse Steven Lenton!

What if YOUR dad could change into a dinosaur?

Hello! It's me, Ruby Thumb. You might remember me and my dad – we're famous POOPAs. What do you mean you've not heard of us? And you don't know what a POOPA is?! It means we're Protector Of Our Dinosaur Allies – obviously!

Me and my dad have loads of amazing adventures in Dinotropolis – an incredible island, full of dinosaurs who live just like us humans do. And when we go there using our special magic Ammonite shell, we turn into dinosaurs too!

Let me tell you about the time I spent the week at Pangea's Largest Outstanding Prehistoric School – or PLOPS, as we call it, ha! – AND took part in the Big School Talent Show. I was quite nervous about starting school – and there were a few dino-tastic surprises along the way – but in the end it was totally roarsome!

A hilarious and brilliantly illustrated easy-to-read story peppered with real dino facts – perfect for any young dinosaur-lover!
