Harry wants to sleep out in his new tent in the garden so that he can practice his scout skills. He looks out of the window and it is pouring with rain, but there's no room to put up his tent in his bedroom. If Harry can't camp in the garden for real, there's only one other place he can practice his scout skills.Harry wishes he could help out more with the decorating and so goes to Dino World to see if he can practice his skills there. Whilst in Dino World the gang bump into their dino friend, Nancy the Nanosaurus whom somehow seems to attract more than her fair share of Calamity. However, as they all work together as a team, with a little trial and error and a flood of orange soda, Harry and his friends manage to successfully transform Dino World. When Harry is disappointed that none of his wishes come true in the real world, the dinosaurs take him to visit the wishing well in Dino-World where wishes are readily granted. The story ends with Harry wishing he hadn't wished for anything in the first place! Harry isn't allowed to join Sam's band because he's not very good at playing the drums. He goes to dino-world where he and the dinos gather together to play various percussion instruments. Pterence leaves the group because he can't keep time so he goes off to a cave by himself. He learns to play some great rhythms based on the sounds of nature around him. Harry and the dinos miss Pterence and go to find him, they are very impressed by what he has learned. Harry is finding it difficult to learn to play the violin and is fearful about performing in his school concert so he goes to Dino-World to practice. As he is playing, musical notes come to life around him. When Harry finds he is making many mistakes he decides to quit, at which point the musical notes run away to the jumpin' joint on Piano Hill. Harry and the dinos follow the notes and learn that making music, even when making mistakes, is great fun!
