Why you need The Dinosaur Disaster:
What if your school’s pet was a robotic dinosaur? And your teacher a mad scientist named Dr. Cosmic? A humorous and info-filled graphic novel with an exciting story, The Dinosaur Disaster will be one to read again and again. Breezy fun facts and clever illustrations give this a comic book feel that will engage your budding scientist. Light, smart, and entertaining, this volume from the Mad Scientist Academy series is a fun adventure for kids ages 5 – 8 and their parents.
“Dr. Cosmic is plainly a colleague of Ms. Frizzle, and the mix of pithy banter, tumultuous field-trip mishaps, and science fact is as familiar as it is winning. Fans of the Frizz will be dino-delighted. Mad fun.” —Starred Kirkus review
