The Dinosaur's Diary

Product Information

This is a story about a dinosaur who falls through a portal and onto a farm, as she explores and makes new friends, she learn lots about the human world and also becomes a mother. The story has a happy ending and the book is very humorous. Now, you may have guessed that this special dinosaur visitor was a bit of a stunt. And you’d be partially correct – but it was also much more than that.

I really enjoy writing verse, even though it can be fiendishly difficult. I used to memorise poems as a child and it means a lot to me when parents tell me their child can recite one of my books. La historia bien narrada y entretenida; solo me molestó un poco que la autora fuera tan cuidadosa en aclarar que la protagonista no conocía los objetos "hechos por humanos", pero de repente se le pasan algunos y, espontáneamente, no hay necesidad de aclarar qué es qué (por ejemplo, en el tractor). Lo que yo esperaba era que Henrietta le explicara qué era qué, pero ella tampoco tenía mucho cómo conocer los nombres (dejando de lado que haya aprendido a echarlo a andar).We were recently inspected by Ofsted and they talked about the pupils feeling inspired in their learning.

Immersive learning – How we improved outcomes (and impressed

This book is a brilliant book for young children to transition from picture books to more grown up literature styles. The story is beautifully illustrated, again to keep the childrens' attention and I personally believe to assist the transition. This is a story written from the point of view of a dinosaur called Hypsilophodon. She desperately wants to have babies, but is terrorised by some of the bigger, more aggressive dinosaurs. This means she’s not able to have babies where she currently lives, because the more predatory dinosaurs eat her eggs for dinner. A really enjoyable story for a younger reader. The story explores the adventures of H, a dinosaur who finds a magic portal to our world where her children are born. The story is brilliant to explore new experiences, feelings and how important it is to support others. Dinosaurs have been a topic of discussion and inspiration for much longer this year than they were during a different iteration of the topic last year. Why we use immersive learning I think the age range would be from 7-9 year olds although early years could enjoy to this through class reading sessions.When Hypsilophoden discovers her new surroundings she is very timid and scared of this new place. She soon discovers that she doesn't need to be afraid as others are now afraid of her. Hypsilophoden still needs some guidance from her unknown surroundings and finds some friends with local swallows. They help her along her journey and find her a safe and secure place to lay her eggs, although, due to her naivety they have some laughs along the way! They met the guardian of The Lost Lending Library, who told them about its travels and how it jumps from place to place driven by the imagination of young people.

It could be read to a whole class as it’s easy to follow and there are some nice illustrations you could show the class as well. It could also be used in 1-2-1 reading to help children’s development with their reading skills.

Located behind a bookcase which had mysteriously replaced the door to our staff room, small groups of children discovered that it led into a fantastical library crammed with books of all sizes and colours. I really liked the nervous central character of Hypsilophodon. Not what you’d immediately expect a dinosaur to be like! But the story really conveyed the emotion of Hypsilophodon and her fight to look after her babies and survive herself. The Dinosaur’s Diary is about one of these small creatures, who lives in perpetual terror of T Rex and the like.
