The Dinosaur in the Garden
Penguin/Putnam Books for Young Readers
After waiting millions of years, a T Rex thinks a curious girl might just find the clues he left behind, making his story part of hers.
". . . does a great job giving voice to things that may not usually be heard. I think we often hear from dinosaurs living in their own time, but not often do we hear from a dinosaur from the past; this is how the creator takes her book to the next level–this isn’t just another dino book!"
