From the bestselling author of The Day I Had a Bulldozer comes a dinosaur-filled adventure sure to engage every dinosaur fan!

Have you ever had a dinosaur? Join these kind friends in this fun-filled friendship story about our favorite prehistoric reptiles … Dinosaurs! When Luke and his friends have “real-life” dinosaurs for a day, there can only be one outcome, the best-osaurus day ever! Join these kind-hearted friends as they adventure through their day, ensuring no dinosaurs are left out, and everyone has fun working together.

“A laugh-out-loud, fun-filled playground adventure, with a dino-sized twist.” – Readers’ Choice Book Award

“Highlighting the importance of patience, kindness, empathy, and never giving up, this is a well-rounded, heartwarming story that’s so fun that its lessons about friendship and supporting each other slip in offhandedly, without didacticism. The spread of worn-out dinos being carted by kids on skateboards, strollers, and wagons is laugh-out-loud funny, but even that is one-upped, a page later, by a vision of dinos striking yoga poses.” – Booklife

“There are several SEL components to the story. The children display empathy and kindness throughout the book … A new worthy addition to the series, The Day I Had a Dinosaur, provides multiple learning opportunities while being a fun and engaging story.” – The Barefoot Librarian.
