Description

Bestselling illustrator David Catrow has written and illustrated an easy-to-read story about a hilarious hound dog named Max Spaniel. Max, a daffy hound dog, decides to embark on a dinosaur dig one day. However, what he believes to be dinosaur parts turns out to be random junk—or is it? As Max assembles his 'fossils', readers witness how the eclectic items he finds, including a football, a hockey stick, and an old boot, magically transform into a living dinosaur. The story, filled with visual humor, captures the fantastical thoughts of this imaginative and wacky hound, offering lots of laughs for new readers.
