Tinysaurus


Webster, Sheryl & Fearnley, Jan. Tinysaurus, London : Andersen Press, 2010.

Tinysaurus is the youngest in his family and has tried to grow bigger by jumping, stretching and tying blocks of wood to his legs.  One day while Daddysaurus and Mummysaurus are out hunting he is left at home to protect the eggs.  A Nastysaurus arrives but Tinysaurus picks up the eggs and runs.  Will he escape?  Will the eggs be protected and hatch?  Sheryl Webster's third person narrative is leisurely paced and enhanced by the illustrations.  Jan Fearnley is an award winning illustrator and presents whimsical drawings bursting with colour and humour.  (Age 3-5 years, Themes - Bravery and responsibility)
