Duck-billed dragons playing in groups...
Theropod dragon was covered in feathers...
The plesiosaur gulped down the fish...
The scene is so shocking, it is really eye-opening, and I have seen a lot of dinosaurs!
What is more worth mentioning is that these dinosaurs are full of personalities, have their own hobbies, and form their own "cultural circle".
There are people who love stargazing...
There are people who love music...
There are people who love to play football...
……
Remember to look for dinosaurs with similar interests!
The text details Eliza and her parents following Magic Dragon to the department store. Surprisingly, there are important dark lines hidden in the picture!
If you look closely at the picture, you will find that Eliza's every move successfully attracted the attention of the dinosaurs. It turned out that her little brain had already had an idea...
Can you find the mystery hidden in the picture?
The first thing to note is her pet dachshund, which has a lot of scenes and is struggling to grab the camera every page! Feel free to put two pictures and look for them.
There's a dachshund in this picture, try it out!
Look at the famous paintings on the wall that are "parody", large and small, which makes people can't help but be funny. Do you know the original paintings they correspond to?
Also, take a closer look at the pedestrians and cars on the streets, and maybe you'll spot dinosaurs hiding in hiding.
There are many details waiting for young readers to discover!
Lily Murray and Richard Merritt, respectively, documented the event, and both have been working in their respective fields for more than a decade. One who understands the psychology of children's love of being close to animals, writes the text playfully and rhymes; one is good at depicting dynamic character shapes, using vivid colors with great visual impact. This combination makes the whole book read like following the beat of African drums, riding a dinosaur through the jungle, tense and cheerful.
A graduate of Central Saint Martins School of Art and Design at the University of the Arts London, Richard has worked extensively as a costume illustrator for films based on Roald Dahl's novels The Witch and The Good-Eyed Giant, and is very good at creating fantasy effects. Judging from this book, as a picture book illustrator, he is better at burying various details in the picture.
Chinese version is dedicated by Ming Ming Storytelling, and there are two versions in English, namely the illustrator's original reading version and the slow female voice version, which is very intimate!

What struck me most about this story was that the protagonist, Eliza, went from a fanatical fan who wanted to raise dinosaurs to a "comrade-in-arms" who protected and liberated dinosaurs — because she saw that dinosaurs really liked nature, not being domesticated by humans. ——Kong Yang Xinzhao
The story is humorous, the text rhymes, and it's catchy to read (not a tongue twister). The illustrations are so beautiful, hiding a lot of Easter eggs and burying the dark lines of the story. The first time I read the book to my 4-year-old daughter, my attention was on the text, and it was my daughter who pointed out to me what the protagonist Eliza was doing in the illustration.
