I'm the only one *with* a shirt on.

Ha ha ha, that got me. Actually laughed out loud.
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

It's publication day for my new children's book The Tyrannosaur's Feathers!



To mark its release I've written an article on my blog to say a little about it and to explain why I've dedicated the book to my late friend Wang Qi: https://plesiosauria.com/the-tyrannosaurs-feathers-book-out-now/

The Tyrannosaur's Feathers is widely available online, including now on Amazon US: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1915235596/ I've listed some of the other online places you can buy it at the bottom of the article, or you can order it from your local bookshop.

We won one! I wasn't able to go to the award ceremony in London but Jonathan brought the trophy to the museum so I could pose with it alongside Titus. ^-^

Congratulations, that is great news! ^-^

Congrats! That's awesome!

My daughter (who I bought The Plesiosaur's Neck for) has grown out of dinosaurs but I now have another daughter who I hope to have more success with passing the dinosaur bug onto. I don't have The Tyrannosaur's Feathers but I'll be getting it for her once she's old enough to appreciate it.

Well done and congratulations!  Recognition is always sweet.

Thanks! The recommended reading age is 5-9 years, but I know kids as young as three years old have enjoyed the main story part, especially if you're willing to read the character dialogues in funny voices. :)) As with The Plesiosaur's Neck, there are non-essential info boxes that supplement the main text for more advanced readers who want to dig a bit deeper.

This is just so cool, as was your first book.  Wishing you so much luck with this.  What a fun dimension to add to an already fantasy-fulfilling career.  Well-deserved, avatar_DinoToyForum @DinoToyForum!

My eldest doesn't like funny voices, even though I'm good at them. Maybe the younger one will appreciate my talent. She's not even 2 yet so I have some time to acquire the book.
