“A simple onomatopoeic text with a fabulous second story developing in the illustrations. The confident use of white space to highlight the colour and movement gives a real vibrancy to the book. This is a beautiful read aloud/play along story that showcases Ruth Paul’s considerable talent and growing international reputation.”
Magpies Magazine, December 2011.
Dinosaurs play follow-the leader, and baby dinosaur struggles to keep up. But when the dinosaurs have to turn round, it’s the big ones who get into trouble. A fun read for anyone who’s ever felt left behind.
