We're All Gonna Die-nosaur!: Escape of the Apes by Kon Tan presents the tale of Pterry the pterodactyl, who has lots of nightmares—and they always come true! Can Pterry face his fear of monkeys? If not, we’re all gonna DIE-nosaur!

This book, filled with black-and-white comic illustrations on every page, offers a subversively hilarious experience, ideal for young fans of The Bad Guys, Dog Man, and Captain Underpants.

“A delightful tale of impending doom!” says John Patrick Green, New York Times best-selling author of InvestiGators.

Pterry the pterodactyl has the sc-sc-scariest dreams—the kind that come true! Last night, Pterry dreamed about terrifying creatures with big eyes, lots of hair, and long creepy fingers. Then, on his first-day-of-school field trip, Pterry comes face to face with the horrible beasts—monkeys. And they escape!

Can Pterry find the courage to save himself and his new dinosaur classmates? Or will his banana-shaped head be his downfall?

Kon Tan's hilarious, heart-filled early graphic novel series teaches kids it’s okay to be scared—and that their fears can be overcome.

About the Author

Kon Tan was raised in the Bronx, and from an early age he was obsessed with dinosaurs, monster movies, and superheroes. Unfortunately, one day he grew up, but he was lucky to find work as a teacher, bookseller, and animator. He is afraid of the ocean but proud to have conquered his fear of heights and riding a bike. He promises himself he will eventually learn how to swim. You can see more of his art on his website www.KonsComics.com or follow him on Instagram @KonsComics.
