If You Happen to Have a Dinosaur

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A hugely popular dinosaur picture book adventure, now available in paperback for the first time.

If you happen to have a dinosaur lying around your living room, and you don't know what to do with it... why don't you use it as a can opener? It will make a terrific nutcracker too!

There are oodles of uses for a dinosaur—from a fine umbrella to an excellent kite and a dandy pillow, not to mention a reliable burglar alarm and the perfect excuse to forget your homework.

This delightfully absurd exploration of the domestic uses of dinosaurs—and the things dinos just aren't good for at all—is guaranteed to tickle funny bones and spark imaginations.

If you read carefully, you'll learn how to make your dinosaur last a very long time.
