Little Dinosaur Rumble would rather play and explore than go home for bed. Warm mud, and frolicking with frogs and feathered friends is much more fun. It’s not long though, when Rumble wishes he was back home. A volcano is about to erupt and all the other dinosaurs are telling him to run!

Mum Dinosaur isn’t far away however, reassuring him and leading him home. Before the rhyming bedtime countdown ends, Rumble is fast asleep.

With an eye catching and glittery cover, this countdown bedtime story is sure to capture a little one’s wonder. One of the picture books of the series The Land of Nod, this gorgeous rhyming story is perfect for young adventure seekers at bed time. Little Dinosaur is brave and loves exploring, but when he needs his mum, she’s not far away and soon settles him down for sleep.

The internal book design is fun with text enlarged or in bold in the exciting scenes. It even climbs up and down a volcano and explodes from the top! The colour palette with greens, pinks and purple backgrounds sets off Rumble’s escapades beautifully. A lovely read.
