What if you found a dinosaur in your own backyard? Get ready to raise a baby dinosaur in the Dino Files series!

When Frank's grandma finds the fossil of a dinosaur egg, it's an amazing discovery. Even more amazing? When that egg hatches! Now Frank and his cousin Samantha need to figure out how to take care of a baby dinosaur. They know what he eats. (Lettuce, NOT cookies.) They know he can't be left alone. (He makes BIG messes.) But do they know how to keep him a secret?

About the Author

STACY McANULTY does not have a dinosaur. She does have three kids, two dogs, and one husband. She has been on a dinosaur dig in Wyoming, where she found a small fossil. It wasn't an egg. Stacy grew up in upstate New York but now calls North Carolina home. (She still really wants a dinosaur--preferably a Spinosaurus.) Visit her online and find fun activities at thedinofiles.com.
