Little dinosaurs Bonehead, Tiny, Fin and Bill, have been warned about the “fierce and wild” Gigantosaurus. They must be very careful when they are out playing and exploring. One day, Bonehead the smallest of the friends, assigns himself as the lookout for the monster.

It was a translation so I was surprised that it's still a rhyming book. Then I was confused as the rhyming was very heavy-handed.It was therefore a wonderful surprise to come across something as good as The Gruffalo but with Dinosaurs: Gigantosaurus by Jonny Duddle (what a fabulous name for a children’s author!). An interactive PowerPoint based on the book by Jonny Duddle. A set of seven workshhets involving work on rhyme, capitalisation, writing questions, big/small vocabulary, sequencing words in muddled sentences, picture sequencing and caption writing. Includes Smartbook notebook files which support the sequencing and caption writing exercises. Four little dinosaurs are playing outside, but their mothers have warned them to watch out for the Gigantosaurus. One of the little ones decides it is funny to continually call out false alarms, but when the real Gigantosaurus comes around, he's almost toast.

World Book Day's mission is to offer every child and young person the opportunity to read and love books. I powered through, explaining what's going on along the way, soon realizing it's The Boy Who Cried Wolf retold in a nonsensical way.Find out about the different kinds of dinosaurs mentioned in the story. Can you write a report about each one?

The return of old favourites in a new adventure involving underpants. When Aliens meet Dinosaurs a rhyming riot must ensue!In season 3, our four heroes will discover the joys of sharing their daily life with their little brothers and sisters who are none other than the 4 baby dinos discovered in season 2. Even if it’s a lot of fun, it’s also a lot of responsibility! GIGANTOSAURUS is a picture book which will not only delight young readers but adults as well. Like The Boy who Cried Wolf, the theme to the story shares the caution of even when a liar is telling the truth, they are unlikely to be believed. In this dinosaur-themed retelling of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf," one little dino offers to watch for predators while his friends play. He thinks it's hilarious to falsely warn the others about approaching enemies, just to watch them scurry and hide for nothing. But when the threat becomes real, he learns his lesson. Includes a colorful poster and more information about dinosaurs -- including the eponymous Gigantosaurus.

This activity helps your Year 1 class understand and process the information behind the words they are reading. As a rule, the problem with rhythmic stories for children – which you notice when you’re reading them out loud over and over again – is that you often find that you want to add or remove words to retain a more poetic flow than the original. The Gruffalo was one of the only books I’ve read where that isn’t the case, though unfortunately that level of attention wasn’t repeated in all the other books by Julia Donaldson. Gigantosaurus, however, flows brilliantly, almost perfectly. The repeated segments are catchy and easy for you and your child to remember, for example:All we’ve heard about for at least the last decade is The Gruffalo (I know it was first published in 1999, but as with most things it took numerous years to become a household word). It certainly is an outstanding children’s book in its own right. Having a small boy (our very own Gruffalo’s Child), my husband and I can confidently recite the book from cover to cover (as can our son, an avid reader who has already loved several copies to death). Jonny Duddle beautifully sums this up himself in his dedications “….and don’t listen to Boneheads!”
