An unforgettable picture book from Roald Dahl Funny Prize winner Peter Bently (Cats Ahoy) and illustrator of Guy Parker-Rees (Giraffes Can't Dance). Diggory and his faithful friend Morris the Mole have found a very mysterious tunnel and are itching to investigate. Down, down they go until they come across a rather stubborn boulder blocking their path...Then the boulder went GRUNT! Then it snorted and growled! Then it opened one eye, then another and HOWLED! Diggory cried, 'That's no boulder before us!' 'No!' squeaked the Mole. 'It's a - DIGGEROSAURUS!' The perfect read for everyone who loves diggers and dinosaurs; brilliant for kids aged 3 and up.
