Do Not Pet the Dinosaur

By Skylar Hogan

When Tyrone the T-Rex wakes up from a long nap, he discovers he's overslept...by 66 million years. Now he must navigate city life in search of friendship, food, and a place to belong. Skylar Hogan's hilarious picture book blends fish-out-of-water comedy with a heartfelt story about finding your people dinos.

66 million years ago, Tyrone the T-Rex fell asleep. When he wakes up--the whole world looks different.

When his search for his friends takes him to the Museum of Natural History, Tyrone is shocked to discover: he's the last living dinosaur. Hired as a star attraction and tour guide, Tyrone suddenly has fans, fame, and a strict manager named Steve.

But even surrounded by crowds, Tyrone has never felt lonelier--or hungrier. Business attire is confusing. The dino nuggets are absurdly small. And no one seems to quite understand him. Can Tyrone find a friend in this new world?
