What is Grrr! dinos, dragons & other beastie poems about?

Get ready to meet a rumbling crowd of dinosaurs, dragons, mythical monsters and other beastly creatures. These lively poems stomp, swoop, roar and slither through imaginative adventures, from spotting a dinosaur and stealing a dragon’s egg to facing a swamp thing or discovering what the Minotaur is planning. With playful language, strong rhythms and plenty of humour, this collection brings prehistoric predators and legendary beasts to life in verses that are exciting, surprising and just a little bit grrruesome.
