"The Laughing Dinosaur" is ideal for pre-teen Sunday school classes, home schooling and for meaningful general reading. There is a phonetic glossary for "big" words and a bibliography for further studies. If you are thinking about becoming a Christian or are new in the faith, "The Laughing Dinosaur" biblical verses are helpful to get you going and to keep you going.
