Now available as a board book: the award-winning illustrated
bedtime story about a little girl who imagines what it would be
like to have a dinosaur of her very own. As read by Eddie Redmayne
for CBeebies Christmas Day Bedtime Story WINNER of the 'Best
Preschool Book' - Made For Mums Awards 2018 A little girl dreams of
having her very own pet. But what kind of animal would make the
best companion? A mouse is too small; a cat is too ordinary; and a
fish is too... wet! As she plays with her toy dinosaur, inspiration
strikes. What about a real, live dinosaur? She could ride it to
school. It would need lots of food to eat, a swimming pool to drink
from, and a dino flap so it could come and go. At the end of a day
spent busily imagining, the girl trudges up to bed with her little
plastic dinosaur. As she falls asleep, the dinosaur from her
daydreams stands in the garden with its head poking through the
bedroom window, making her dreams come true.

storyteller with perfect comic timing. Watch out for the dog and
the tortoise, too...

In this book from the critically acclaimed, multimillion-copy
bestselling Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the life of
Martin Luther King Jr., the inspiring minister and civil rights
activist. Little Martin grew up in a family of preachers: his dad
was a preacher, his uncle was a preacher, his grandfather was a
preacher... so maybe he'd become a great preacher too. One day, a
friend invited him to play at his house. Martin was shocked when
his mother wouldn't let him in because he was black. That day he
realized there was something terribly unfair going on. Martin
believed that no one should remain silent and accept something if
it's wrong. And he promised himself that - when he grew up - he'd
fight injustice with the most powerful weapon of all: words. This
moving book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra
facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with
historical photos and a detailed profile of the inspiring
activist's life. Little People, BIG DREAMS is a bestselling series
of books and educational games that explore the lives of
outstanding people, from designers and artists to scientists and

Eendag was daar ’n meisie wat vreeslik graag vrae gevra het. “Waarom?”
“Waar?” “Wanneer?” “Hoe?” “Wat?” “Wie?”
Toe almal moeg word vir haar vrae, besluit sy om die antwoorde iewers
anders te gaan soek – in boeke! En kort voor lank begin sy haar eie
stories vertel …
’n Bemagtigende verhaal oor die krag van boeke en stories, en die
verskil wat een meisie kan maak as sy bereid is om moeilike vrae te vra.
Ook beskikbaar in Engels en Setswana.
