| Publisher Description: This clever retelling of a tried-and-true tale has a paleontological twist Three Triceratops brothers by the name of Tuff are on a mission to find some grub. There's just one thing standing in their way: a Tyrannosaurus Rex who has a very different idea of what's for dinner The Tuff brothers must find a way to outsmart this bossy beast, for their very lives--and a bounty of delicious greens--hang in the balance. This vividly illustrated story transplants the classic tale of "The Three Billy Goats Gruff" into the Cretaceous period, where dino fans of all ages will enjoy seeing their favorite subjects use their smarts to battle it out for dinner. |
