Product Information

Nana is reading Harry a bedtime fairy story, but decides it is time for Harry to go to sleep before the story is finished. Although Nana promises to finish the story by tomorrow, Harry and the Dinos go to Dino World to invent the ending themselves. Harry is frustrated at losing games to Sam, Mom, and Nana, so he visits Dino-World where he makes up many games and wins every time. To find out who is the ultimate winner, the dinos invent a new complicated game, but after the game has taken them on a fun journey all over Dino-World they realise that winning isn't important as long as they are having fun. When Harry's first tooth comes out, Harry places it under his pillow and waits for a visit from the legendary Tooth Fairy. But Harry is so eager to meet her that he finds it hard to fall asleep, and so decides to go to Dino World to see if he can save her the trip. Instead of the regular Tooth Fairy the gang manage to discover a Dinotoothfairysaurus, a tooth fairy especially for Dinosaurs! You’ll even find ways to work on your class’s fine motor skills with these pencil control sheets . The children will love helping the different dinosaurs find their way around the mazes. These colouring sheets will reinforce the children’s colour recognition and is good practise for them to stay between the lines. I don't know who "Sam" is or why she is there except to randomly pop up and to be a nasty person to young Harry. "Sam" is totally unnecessary and frankly ruins a cute story. It's possible there are previous "Harry"* books.
