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. 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! 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. My son is dinosaur mad and I am always on the lookout for new dinosaur books and if they feature dinosaur poop then even better! This book doesn't have dinosaur poop in but does have lots of dinosaurs and beautiful illustrations throughout.

this book was absolutely amazing i loved it and so did my little brother, he liked it because it has dinosaurs in this story book 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). This jolly Jurassic rhyming romp features all of our favourite Giganto pals in a rip-roaring adventure looking to find their nemesis the Gigantosaurus.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. Bedtime stories go bonkers in this inventive, subversive version of a traditionally restful night-time tale. Funny illustrations accompany the witty text. All young dinosaurs are warned about the scary Gigantosaurus. So Bonehead volunteers to be the dino-kids lookout. Unfortunately, he is the original boy-dinosaur who cried wolf, or in this case, Gigantosaurus! Finally, Bonehead's friends refuse to believe his warnings and the Gigantosaurus really turns up. Basically, the three little dinosaurs play no part in the whole story and regardless of everything, they don't get eaten. Only Bonehead gets eaten yet he's the only one who actually sees the Gigantosaurus. Were his friends supposed to help? Jonny Duddle beautifully sums this up himself in his dedications “….and don’t listen to Boneheads!”

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. Watch this time-lapse video of the author creating illustrations for covers of the Harry Potter books. But it's not Gigantosaurus, just Bonehead's idea of a joke, and when he takes the joke a bit too far, he's the one on Gigantosaurus' lunch menu! Despite everything happening in the world some occasions will always make things better and one of those is World Book Day, arguably the best day of the year!In Season 1, our heroes made some awesome discoveries during their adventures and games around Cretacia: indestructible bubbles, yummy flowers, an amazing playground in a cave, a stream in the middle of the desert, a basketball court made of carnivorous plants, an aurora borealis, and more! World Book Day's mission is to offer every child and young person the opportunity to read and love books. 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!). is a bumper year for Arena Illustration with no less than 4 of our contributors featuring on this year’s collection of World Book Day Books. 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.

When one of the gang, Bonehead, offers to act as lookout so the others can play safely, they are very grateful - especially when he raises the alarm, shouting that Gigantosaurus is on his way.So if you have a child that loves being read to every night before bed, is dinosaur mad, and wants the same book over and over and over again, then this book won’t go extinct too soon! This activity helps your Year 1 class understand and process the information behind the words they are reading. 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. Your class must complete the sentences by adding in the words or the pictures to complete the sentences.

Perhaps one of the mightiest of those books (although small in stature) is Gigantosaurus Dino-Spot written and illustrated by No 1 Best-selling author and Illustrator Jonny Duddle and based on Jonny’s best-selling picture book Gigantosaurus. We have created this PowerPoint presentation of 21 slides linked to Gigantosaurus which covers the full story with teaching notes and explores a range of factual elements about the story as well as whole class activities.Three cute dinosaurs and one ugly dinosaur subtly named Bonehead are warned by their parents to avoid the Gigantosaurus.
