When Pup and Dragon overhear the kids planning to catch a dinosaur, they leap into action to help! But bad plan after bad plan leads to some pretty funny messes. At the end of the day, Pup and Dragon are always able to look on the bright side and find a solution. Based on the popular How to Catch board book (0–3 years) and picture book (ages 4–8 years) series, Pup and Dragon: How to Catch a Dinosaur is intended for slightly older audiences. The images are colourful and clear, the text is easy to read, and the plot fairly easy to follow for beginners to the graphic novel genre. Also available in the series are How to Catch a Unicorn and How to Catch an Elf.
