One day Jamie and Tom went to the beach to catch crayfish and decided to go to dino world. When they got there, Wanna, a little dinosaur, was waiting there for them. The jungle was full of vines, then suddenly they saw three horns. What is it, said Tom? I think it is a triceratops, Jamie replied. Lets follow it, said Jamie. Look there’s a herd of them. Lets sneak up to one and grab a ride on it’s back, said Tom. Wow, it’s better than being on the handlebars of a giant bike.

And the story continues on the back of a triceratops. It is about all the things they see while they make a map of dino world.

Is it for boys or girls???? I think it is sort of for “boys and girls.” (Gr4-Gr2)

Is it a nice book???? It is a “lovely” book. It was easy to read.
