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.
When The Storks Came Home is a charming, fictionalised retelling of
the successful reintroduction of the white stork at the Knepp
Estate, a UK native bird which has been brought back from
extinction. In this second picture book from bestselling author and
globally significant conservationist Isabella Tree, we meet
eight-year-old Beanie, who loves birds. When she discovers that
huge white storks used to live in her own village but were hunted
to extinction in the UK 600 years ago, she is determined to find a
way to bring them back. But reintroducing a vanished species is not
so simple! Storks can fly hundreds of miles, so releasing storks
into the local countryside won't be enough to make them return and
stay for good. With the help of other villagers, Beanie hatches a
plan... Beautiful illustrations help bring this powerful and
important story to life, teaching children about conservation and
their environment in an accessible way. Ivy Kids brings you
beautiful, sustainably printed books to rewild your child, nurture
creativity, and foster a deep connection with the living world.
