A Dinosaur Ate My Homework
Did you know that dinosaurs absolutely love to eat homework? It's true! All that paper is made from trees, so it's a tasty snack for plant eaters! But when a young boy's maths assignment is suddenly snatched away, he decides to give chase – after all, he doesn't want to disappoint his teacher. But dinosaurs can be very stubborn, and who knows, maybe there is another reason for wanting to take it...
This is a hilarious and exciting story about facing up to challenges and the importance of empathy, featuring wildly expressive and entertaining illustrations.
