Dinosaur Superstar

Readathon

This book is a great read - and royalties will be donated via Readathon to the Malcolm Sargent Cancer Fund for Children. Dick King-Smith, Tony Ross, Helen Cresswell, Joan Aiken, Robert Leeson and five more authors have contributed short stories of wide variety and appeal - among them a dinosaur with rock-star ambitions, blue apple-bearing monster trees, a beautifully written adventure of a raindrop and the tale of 'Orrid John', whom Father Christmas teaches a lesson. Readers of 10+ will enjoy this for themselves and many Junior classes will delight in having the stories read to them.
