Product Information

The lost property man gets a surprise when Harry proves the dinosaurs are his by calling them over to him. Start by adding some prehistoric magic to your display walls with this colourful lettering and illustrated banner . Harry is nervous about giving a speech about dinosaurs to his classmates, so he goes to Dino-World to practice, in the hope of gaining confidence. Whilst there, he finds that the annual dinosaur convention is taking place, and Steggy, who is suffering from severe stage fright, is expected to deliver the key-note speech. Steggy and Harry help each other overcome their fears and both deliver triumphant speeches. Harry is finding it difficult to learn to play the violin and is fearful about performing in his school concert so he goes to Dino-World to practice. As he is playing, musical notes come to life around him. When Harry finds he is making many mistakes he decides to quit, at which point the musical notes run away to the jumpin' joint on Piano Hill. Harry and the dinos follow the notes and learn that making music, even when making mistakes, is great fun! Harry wishes he could help out more with the decorating and so goes to Dino World to see if he can practice his skills there. Whilst in Dino World the gang bump into their dino friend, Nancy the Nanosaurus whom somehow seems to attract more than her fair share of Calamity. However, as they all work together as a team, with a little trial and error and a flood of orange soda, Harry and his friends manage to successfully transform Dino World.

When helping Nan clear out the attic, Harry comes across a box of toy dinosaurs. He fixes them, cleans them and finds out all of their names (great for children obsessed with dinosaurs as all the names of them are in here!). Harry takes them shopping, to the beach, in the bath and to bed. Everywhere he goes, they are also. When Harry accidentally leaves them on a train, he learns that videos and TV can't replace the fun and friendship he had with his dinosaurs. Harry and the Dinos form a marching band and take a trip to Dino World to perform in the National Dino Day parade. Outfitted with musical instruments and uniforms, they set about getting ready for the parade. The only problem is that they seem to be having some trouble playing their instruments. And marching in time. And their music is a little, well, loud. Just as Harry and the Dinos are wondering how you have a parade without making any noise, a big dino-shaped balloon comes to their rescue...!Harry decides to imitate his Mom by becoming a newspaper reporter for the day. Harry can find nothing news-worthy at home so goes to Dino-World to report on the world's first ever dinosaur race! I like videos.
