MEET DIPPY: Dippy is a Diplodocus (DIP-low-DOCK-us). Dippy was the
first of its kind to go on display anywhere in the world when it
arrived at the Museum more than a hundred years ago. Since then,
Dippy has adventured across the length and breadth of the country.
MEET WATERHOUSE: Waterhouse the Mouse lives in the Museum and
thought he knew about everything within its famous walls. Until one
day he meets a gigantic bony stranger and a big booming voice...
When railroad workers unearthed the fossilised bones of a
Diplodocus in Wyoming, USA in 1899, newspapers billed the discovery
as the 'most colossal animal ever on Earth'. Dippy, a replica of
this famous skeleton, first arrived in London in 1905, and for many
years served as an awe-inspiring welcome for visitors to the
Natural History Museum. This book answers all your questions about
the nation's favourite dinosaur and will delight young readers with
its imaginative illustrations.

How do you make a rainbow? This joyful story, written by Caroline
Crowe and illustrated by Cally Johnson-Isaacs, shows how to find
colour and hope when days seem dim and grey: celebrating love,
positivity and the precious relationship between a child and her

grandad to help her paint a rainbow on the sky. But as Grandad

Rainbow? is a reassuring, heart-warming story of colours, kindness,
community and nature, that shows that brighter times are always
around the corner.
