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 enjoyed this book

It's amazing because it shows that anyone can be a hero. Also if you learn something new and fight for it, it's better than if you already know something and fight for it.

I liked how they show you how the illustrations were done at the end of the book and the find the dinosaur game. It was funny when the dinosaurs thought their reflections in the water were water monsters

My favourite character was Drip because even though people call him weedy he is very tough on the inside.

I loved this fiction story by Julia Donaldson. It was a funny story. My favourite character was Tyrannosaurus Drip because he was a t rex. I would recommend this book to other children aged 5 and over that like Julia Donaldson and dinosaurs.

This book is fiction with some facts. My favourite part of the book is when drips finds his family. It interests me because I like the drip character and the story.
