Publisher Description:
What were the dinosaurs like when they were alive? Dave and Dad are about to find out
Dad takes Dave to the museum. As they walk through the dinosaur exhibit, Dave tries to get his father's attention. Why is this one grinning and why is that one interested in Dave's lunch? But Dad is too busy telling Dave all there is to know about these amazing creatures to notice that they've sprung to life Dave gets the feeling that Dad has one terribly important fact very, very wrong...
In this deliciously witty story, Middleton brings a fresh twist to a familiar day out that will leave readers laughing out loud. Ayto's quirky illustrations add surprising details to this fast-paced museum adventure.
