THE DINOSAUR IN THE GARDEN

After waiting millions of years, a T Rex thinks a curious girl might just find the clues he left behind, making his story part of hers.

For millions of years after his time, T Rex watched the earth change. And now a little girl roams and explores right where he used to live. Will she be the one to find the clues he left behind and bring his story back to life?

This fascinating, lyrical picture book provides readers with a staggering sense of the vastness of geologic time, while also showing us how close the traces of the distant past can be - as long as we are curious enough to look.
