Dino Diggers, Digger Disaster
Chris Chatterton
Impey and Chatterton, renowned author and illustrator, have created a Dinosaur Digging series of books which will surely delight. In this Digger Disaster book, not least of the fun is the DINO DIGGER press-out model to build, at the back of the book, along with Tyrone, one of the masterbuilders! Terri, Tyrone, Ricky, Bruno and Stacey make up the Dino Diggers, the best in Dino-Town. They put things right when they go wrong, and never let you down. Mr Ali O’Saurus has commissioned them to build a new car factory in the town. He is an impatient client, and makes demands for work to be achieved by the end of the day. “Fast?” boasts Tyrone T- Rex, I’ll be like a mighty meteorite!” Too much haste, too little studying of the plans…. And calamity strikes with a cracked water main, floods everywhere, what a dino-digging disaster. Graphic pictures show just exactly how the scheming and resourceful dinos set to work to rectify the burst pipe, avert further problems, and get the building back on schedule. Lots of activity is shown on each spread, as the text gently pushes on the tale. With brilliant dino team work, the factory is completed to everyone’s satisfaction. Hurrah for the Dino Diggers…. Now to make up the press out machine.
