Larry Lizard lives deep in the Redwood Forest with his mom, dad, sisters, and brothers. At bedtime, under starry skies, his parents tell their little lizards tales about their ancestors: the mighty dragons and dinosaurs!
Next day, while his parents are busy and his siblings are nowhere in sight, Larry pretends to be the great king of all dinosaurs-Tyrannosaurus rex-and as his imagination takes over, he sees dinosaurs in everything around him, from the water to the insects to even the clouds above! Soon he is battling a Brontosaurus, then leaping at a flying Pterodactyl, stomping, chomping, and roaring at his prey.
As Larry walked, he passed a pool
and watched his muscles flex;
today our hero was a great
Tyrannosaurus rex.
The King of Dinos looked about
and spied his meal at hand:
a huge and heavy Brontosaur
was sleeping in the sand. . . .
The Secret Life of Larry Lizard is a delightful poem about the fun of adventurous imaginative play and the excitement that comes with learning about one's ancestors-and the awesomeness of dinosaurs! This picture book includes a glossary, titled "Things to Know," which is both informative and humorous, plus a Family Tree where children can write the names of some of their ancestors.
