Dinosaur-Long-As-127-Kids” is one of the rare picture books where writer and illustrator compliment each other perfectly. Writer, Geeta Dharmarajan, spins a narrative where a collage of a Jurassic Age Dinosaur, a mythological Asura and a young girl in present day come together in a story that will keep the little ones giggling and asking for more.

This book was awarded the Chitralekha award for outstanding illustrations in 2006 and it’s easy to see why. The colours! Beautiful primary colours brighten crayon-ey illustrations that leap off the page.

The illustrations by Rajiv Eipe will grab the attention of young children and kindle their imagination.

This is a ‘must-have’ book in every picture book library
