It's Rex's tenth birthday, and it's time to party!
Molly Idle, Caldecott Honor-winning author-illustrator, returns with a new story to celebrate everyone's favorite dinosaur.Rex cordially invites you and all of his friends to celebrate a milestone birthday, so remember to greet the guest of honor at the door with an enthusiastic "happy birthday," share party favors with the other attendees, and best of all, enjoy some cake and games! When it's time to leave, don't forget to thank the host for a wonderful time and make sure to extend the invitation when it's time to celebrate your birthday.
Molly Idle is the author and illustrator of the Caldecott Honor-winning picture book
Flora and the Flamingo (and the rest of the Flora books too). She’s also the creator of the Rex series (which includes
Tea Rex and
Santa Rex), the mermaid tales
Pearl and
Coral, and most recently,
Witch Hazel.
Prior to pursuing a career in picture books, Molly worked as an artist for DreamWorks Feature Animation studios in California, but has since set up shop in the sunny state of Arizona, where she works and lives with her marvelous, multigenerational family which includes: her brilliant husband, two mercurial sons, two remarkable parents, two snugly cats and an inseparable pair of lovebirds.
When she’s not making mischief with her boys, or watching old Technicolor musicals, Molly can be found in her workshop with a pencil in one hand and a cup of espresso in the other- scribbling away on her next book!
