What is Harry and the Bucketful of Dinosaurs about?

When Harry discovers a dusty bucket of toy dinosaurs in Nan’s attic, he carefully cleans them and learns each dinosaur’s name. Soon, the dinosaurs go everywhere with him, even to the library, where Harry whispers their names and hears them whisper back. But after a train journey, Harry realises they have been left behind. Heartbroken, he searches for them. Luckily, Harry knows his dinosaurs so well that he can call them back and prove they belong to him.
