As a little girl and her mum discover some dinosaur footprints on the beach - one set small, one set large - they wonder who they could have belonged to . . .
"Come, Little Dino, the world is so wide.
The safe place for you, is here by my side . . ."
Little Dino loves exploring the wide world with Mama, but when they get separated by a storm, can he be brave and find the way back to her side?
Perhaps the kindness of others, and some clues in the sand, will help to lead Little Dino home . . .
A reassuring and beautifully illustrated celebration of the unbreakable parent-child bond. Written by Hollie Hughes, author of The Girl and the Dinosaur, with artwork from award-winning illustrator Ben Mantle.
Inspired by real dinosaur footprints on the Isle of Skye in Scotland!
