All young dinosaurs are warned about the scary Gigantosaurus. So Bonehead volunteers to be the dino-kids' lookout whenever they go into the jungle to play.

Unfortunately, he is the original boy-dinosaur who cried wolf, or in this case, GIGANTOSAURUS! Finally, Bonehead's friends refuse to believe his warnings, and the Gigantosaurus really turns up!

In a vertical gatefold surprise, it looks like Bonehead has got crunched - but in a hilarious reveal, we discover this annoying little dinosaur is safe after all.
