The World of Dinosaur Roar! #3
Dinosaur Munch The Diplodocus
The huge Diplodocus, called Dinosaur Munch, had a tummy that never felt full after lunch. Dinosaur Munch is always hungry - he wants more and more and more - but will his huge appetite get him into trouble? The wonderful rhyming text written by award-winning author Jeanne Willis, introduces Dinosaur Munch and various other dinosaur characters in a story suitable for the very youngest children. Very funny, and great to read aloud, Dinosaur Munch! The Diplodocus has been approved by Dr Paul Barrett of the Department of Earth Sciences at the Natural History Museum in London, and the book contains a spread of simple dinosaur facts and a pronunciation guide. This book is part of The World of Dinosaur Roar! series, a collectable series of preschool books created by Peter Curtis and produced in association with the Natural History Museum in London. Inspired by the classic picture book, Dinosaur Roar! by Paul Stickland and Henrietta Stickland, this colourful series introduces a range of authentic dinosaur characters to very young children.

Noah loves this one. It’s easy to get trapped in a never-ending series of “read it again, daddy”.

Greedy Diplodocus eats all the plants he can see until he finally bites more than he can swallow!
This book is great for vocal expressions and getting to know different kinds of dinosaurs. It has facts about the type of dinosaur that features in this story.
The illustrations are lovely too.

My one year old seemed to enjoy this one though he kept turning the pages back. Not sure if this was in order to make it longer or in dismay about the lack of an ending to the story.

This is a solid favourite, a very short but funny story loved by all especially the 3yr old!

Such a cute story about a gluttonous diplodocus. My son absolutely loves this one and asks for it again and again! I love how all these books have a lesson at the end.
