"One of the cutest books to come on the market for children. This book is perfect to snuggle up and share with a child, as the beautiful illustrations really capture a child's attention."
>From Max Hawthorne, the "Prince of Paleofiction" and author of the award-winning Kronos Rising series, comes an endearing Christmas tale about a lonely child whose life is turned around by, of all things, a dinosaur!
Young Billy lives with his parents in the country. It's almost Christmas, his favorite time of year, but Billy is sad. His pet iguana has gone missing, his dad is away on yet another business trip, and he has to protect his friend Javier from bullies at the bus stop every morning.
But things are about to change for Billy. Up at the North Pole, Santa is dealing with an unexpected guest: a mischievous baby Tyrannosaurus rex named Tyron. When the elves are no longer able to handle the young dinosaur, Santa's head elf, Xavier, decides to give the baby T-rex to a very deserving child: Billy!
Filled with incredible illustrations, a touching story bound to bring a smile to one's face, and a strong anti-bullying message to boot,
I Want a Tyrannosaurus for Christmas is sure to be a perennial favorite!
"A fun, sentimental, and beautifully illustrated romp for any kid who loves dinosaurs--which is all of them! I wish I'd had this book when I was a budding 6-year-old paleontologist. I would've read it to pieces." >
