      A Sunday Times, One to Watch Out For pick! Smile and stomp along with this celebration of all things DINOSAUR, with exuberant poems by a National Poetry Day ambassador and joyful artwork. Welcome to a world where it’s eat or be eaten – depending on how ferocious you are.

Author Simon Mole turns fascinating facts into over 30 poems and fragments, full of humour and heart; Matt Hunt’s magnificent illustrations bring these prehistoric beasts thundering off the page. Here are the dinosaurs in all their larger-than-life glory – and here is a book that children will want to read over and over again.

The rich and evocative language and carefully undertaken research contained in Simon's dynamic and engaging poems, paired with Matt Hunt's striking illustrations, makes this a collection that is destined to inspire and delight young readers."
