The Littlest Dinosaur's Big Adventure

By Michael Foreman

Book Description

A little dinosaur finds that bravery comes in all sizes

When the littlest dinosaur goes out exploring one day, he only wants to play leapfrog with the frogs and chase the butterflies through the meadows. But when he gets lost in the dark woods, all he can think about is getting home again. Summoning all of his courage is difficult, but when he finds a small pterodactyl also lost in the woods, the littlest dinosaur finds that he is brave enough to get them home safely. From award-winning author/illustrator Michael Foreman comes a big adventure that proves that courage can appear from unexpected places in anyone, big or small.

This simply told but emotionally complex story ends peacefully as the Littlest Dinosaur dreams “of his new friends, big and small.” Foreman’s soft and gentle cartoon-style illustrations are tailored for young eyes and hearts. Sharing the book aloud will invite discussion as Foreman leaves readers a well-marked trail for inference and reflection, while the twists and turns of the plot will keep even the youngest audiences riveted.”–School Library Journal
