Publisher's Synopsis
I Made Friends with a Dinosaur is the first-person adventure story of Ryan, a boy whose plastic model dinosaur, Tim, comes alive.
Ryan and Tim have a friendship built on empathy and respect for each other. These unlikely friends also share a wholehearted commitment to help others who are in danger. Early in their friendship they work together to rescue a cat who has fallen into a storm drain and is trapped. Later Ryan and Tim brave an approaching forest fire in order to free horses from their stable, which is in the fire's path. Ryan and Tim accomplish these good works while keeping Tim's ability to transform from a plastic model to a live dinosaur under wraps, since they share a fear of the danger to Tim of being the first live dinosaur on earth in 65,000,000 years.
