A classic children's story.
Suppose you were hunting around in the desert for a fossil? Instead
you find a real (and very large) dinosaur, genus Stegosaurus.
Joan
and Joey Brown did! Only nobody would believe they had found one,
which was just as well because George (as they called him) was very
shy.
George was a loyal friend, though, and he did his best to help the twins
with their schemes to make money to finance their mother's dry little
ranch on Cricket Creek.
George ate sagebrush, looked for fossils, and
fought an airplane (which he thought was a pterodactyl) with faithful
enthusiasm, but his nut-sized brain often made him more hindrance than
help. Especially when he went after the bank robber!
Mrs. Lampman tells this hilarious story so convincingly that you'll
be looking for dinosaurs around every mesa. And who knows? Maybe
you'll find one!
MEET GEORGE
HE'S STRONG, as a giant dinosaur should be, in fact
he's strong enough to wreck a plane! (Of course he thinks its his old enemy, the
flying Pteranodon.) HE'S LOYAL. He'll do
anything to help Joan and Joey save their mother's ranch at Cricket Creek, even
chase a bank robber.
HE'S SHY. He's so
shy he gets Joan and Joey into hilarious, dinosaur sized trouble!
