Tyrannosaurus in the Veggie Patch

by Nicholas Falk, Tony Flowers

The first in a fun new adventure series for kids who love dinosaurs When Jack wishes for his own Tyrannosaurus, he doesn't expect a real live one to turn up in the veggie patch. It's pretty cool, but there's no way he can keep it. It's far too big to hide in the shed, and it's bound to eat one of the neighbors sooner or later. With the help of local whiz kid Toby, Jack builds a time machine and sends the T-rex back to the dinosaur era. But when Toby, Jack, and Charlie the dog get sent back to the Cretaceous period too, there's more than one troublesome Tyrannosaurus to deal with.

A young boy wishes for his own tyrannosaurus.

An interesting idea for a story with some clever plot points and good illustrations, but the book didn't really grab me.
