Meet your new best friend, Truckosaurus: part truck, part dinosaur, and ALL fun!
In this wild picture book adventure, readers explore the magical, wacky island of the most loveable and imaginative creature: Truckosaurus! Drive along with Truckosaurus as he feasts with laser tooth tigers, dances with flashlight raptors, and has tea with elephant fairies and ballerina bats. Truckosaurus is a friend to all and encourages kids to lend a helping hand in their community, be kind, and build empathy.
Coupled with playful illustrations and hilariously imaginative rhyming text, this wonderful picture book is sure to delight older toddlers and young readers ages 3-7, parents, and teachers! This fantastic read aloud is the perfect gift for birthdays, classroom libraries, holidays, or any little one who loves dinosaurs or trucks.
In a secret land far, far away,
no one can see tiny dinosaurs play.
This hidden jungle has so many friends —
lions, tigers, and bears — but that’s not the end…
