There's another new boy who's really unhappy too - can the dinosaurs come to the rescue and make school fun for all of them. He is immediately enchanted, and the dinosaurs take on an unstated sentience that never seems to require suspension of disbelief. When Harry hears that Mr Oakley has been robbed by a nasty crook, he hopes that he and his friends - Jack, Charlie and Siri - can solve the crime. Aptly named the 'Nanosaurus', it turns out that this little dinosaur is renowned for its clumsiness.

You be the Tyrannosaurus and I be the baby Tyrannosaurus and *waves plastic spoon* this is a lizard and we're going to eat him. He quickly discovers that it doesn't matter how small you are - you can be a tiny as a tick on a turtle's tail and still make a big difference! Although the dinosaurs are toy-sized in the real world, within DinoWorld they become dinosaur-sized, while Harry retains his actual size. The series follows the adventures of a young boy named Harry, who discovers a magic bucket that allows him to bring his toy dinosaurs to life.

The first of the Harry and the bucketful of dinosaurs book, a lovely story of how Harry found the dinosaurs and his first few adventures with them.

Harry and the Dinos are having a whale of a time on the Dino World roller coaster – but it's time to go home.When I was a kid I absolutely loved anything related to dinosaurs, dinosaurs movies, tv shows, toys, books, art, all of it. Mum and Nan are concerned about how Harry and his dinosaurs will handle a sleepover at Jack’s house – but their worries are unfounded. Harry really wants to eat the strawberries growing in the garden but Mom warns him that they will not be ripe for another week. Harry is so impressed by the dinos' bravery and the power attributed to them by his imagination that he proudly informs his peers at the next 'Show and Tell' just how amazing his dinos really are.
