A brilliantly funny story all about celebrating difference, from the stellar picture-book partnership of Julia Donaldson and David Roberts – perfect for young dinosaur fans everywhere!

Everyone knows that tyrannosauruses are big and scary, so when a placid duckbill dinosaur’s egg ends up in the wrong nest, confusion is sure to ensue! When the baby dinosaur hatches out, he’s so out of place that his grisly big sisters call him Tyrannosaurus Drip. Poor little Drip: all he wants is a quiet life munching on water weed . . .

Tyrannosaurus Drip is a fantastic rhyming adventure story from Julia Donaldson, bestselling author of The Gruffalo, with wonderfully funny illustrations from award-winning illustrator David Roberts. This roar-tastic book all about celebrating difference is sure to become a firm favourite with young dinosaur fans.

Enjoy the other stories by Julia Donaldson and David Roberts: The Troll, Jack and the Flumflum Tree, The Flying Bath and The Cook and the King.

I liked how the egg rolled into the wrong nest. And how the T-rexs ended up splashing into the over. Drip is Brave and funny.

It was fiction. Very funny characters. Tyrannosaurus Drip was the best,he just saved his duck-billed dinosaur family. He tricked the T-rex family by looking into their reflection in the water and they think it was water monters. I recommend this book.

I live dinosaurs and rhymes. This was perfect. I am a big fan of Julia Donaldson also. Not her best one but i enjoyed it!

I like Tyrannosaurus Drip because he knows he's not the same as the others, and finds the ones he's supposed to be with.

I like that Tyrannosaurus Drip isn't the biggest or bravest but he wins in the end!

I do not like this book too much. because it is about a baby dinosaur going to another family not his. I like the ending more then the beginning because the baby dinosaur go's to his parents . I would not recommend this book to someone else because it might frighten them.
