Dinosaur Cove, Attack of the Tyrannosaurus

Dinosaur Cove is an adventure book written by Rex Stone about two boys who meet each other on the beach at Dinosaur Cove. Jamie wants to be a scientist and is equipped with useful tools to learn more about fossils, rocks, and plants. Tom is an explorer, he wants to be a wildlife presenter.

Tom has somewhere fun to show Jamie. So the newly acquainted friends rush down the beach together to the "smugglers cave". The boys start to explore the cave and find a secret entrance. What they find is everything they were looking for. Dinosaurs, fossils, old plants and lots of action! The boys are having a lot of fun looking throughout the new world the discovered until they come face to face with a T-Rex. How could they possibly get away?

This short chapter book would be for the students who likes adventure and action. It is an easy read and has illustrations that follow the book as well. I enjoyed the book and the adventure that it had to offer. It would leave a young reader in suspense of what will happen next. I would recommend this book to young readers who are interested in action and adventure.

  1. Ian this sounds like a great book for my boys to read. As you know we love dinosaurs and this is a great step up from picture books and my boys are at that stage where picture books are not as "cool" as reading chapter books. Thanks for posting this one!
