Mitton's delightful rhyme and Parker-Rees' whimsical illustrations will make children want to join in the dance while they learn about some of their favourite prehistoric pals. By the time the romp is over, and the dinosaurs are fast asleep, kids won't be able to shake that jumping, thumping Dinosaurumpus beat!
