What Would You Say to a Dinosaur? by Adam Guillain

What would you say to a dinosaur who has never been to town before?
“Would you like a banana?”

Stegosaurus is visiting Dino Town to see his granny, but from the moment he steps off the train, everything starts to go delightfully wrong. The streets are busy, the signs are confusing, and helpful advice from passers-by only makes things more chaotic. Before long, Stegosaurus is covered in socks, pants and cake, and completely lost.

What Would You Say to a Dinosaur? is a brilliantly silly, interactive picture book that invites children to join in, shout suggestions and spot details on every page. Packed with nonsensical questions, unexpected twists and laugh-out-loud moments, it is perfect for energetic read-alouds and repeated sharing.

With vibrant comic-style illustrations and playful language, this story turns everyday manners and directions into a joyful, dinosaur-sized muddle.

Why we and schools love this book
