Nicholas Butler, aged 7 I enjoyed this story because it is an action book...I would definitely tell my friends to read this book as it's got loads of dinosaurs in it. Click here to read the full review.
Spencer Jarrett, age 9 I enjoyed this book as it was easy to read and understand, I kept reading on to find out what was going to happen to the boys and the descriptions of the dinosaurs were really terrifying. I’m happy we don’t have T-Rex’s stomping through our lives today! Click here to read the full review.
Sam Harper, age 9 a brilliant introduction to a fantastic series which is packed full of loads of different types of dinosaurs....I loved this book and would recommend it to anyone who is mad about dinosaurs as well as fans of Astrosaurs and other dinosaur adventures.

About Rex Stone
Rex Stone is the pseudonym used by Working Partners, the creators
of Rainbow Magic and other successful series like Animal Ark.
Illustrator Mike Spoor grew up in Northumberland and it was during holidays to the Lake District with his grandparents that he first found a love for drawing. After attending Art College and working as a landscape architect Mike trained as a teacher. He moved to Australia and spent his time flying all over the country to run ceramics workshops. Now, after swapping ceramics for illustration, Mike is back in England and has illustrated many hundreds of books. He considers himself a craftsman rather than a ‘serious’ artist because he is best at drawing scratchy unfinished humorous ideas.
