Praise for I'm Sure I Saw a Dinosaur

The perfect pairing . . . A lovely story to read aloud.

Sally Morris, Daily Mail

Lively and fun rhyming tale...The illustrations are great (and the) colours are bright and enticing with large, clearly defined faces.

The Bookbag

The damp English chill is almost palpable in Reynolds's outdoor scenes, as is the nearly unstoppable momentum of a crowd's folly.
