"Rawry was a T- Rex, but you see, he wasn’t just any T-Rex though, he was a Super T-Rex, meaning he had a superpower, and HIS superpower was his smile.
​
Well ... his big dinosaur grin!
​
Whenever Rawry met someone new, he loved to make a grand introduction! He never settled for a simple "Hello, my name is Rawry" in a regular voice.
Instead, he would take a deep breath and proudly ROAR his name out with a big, booming sound that echoed through the jungle.
Everyone seemed to like it, especially his grandparents, and they would laugh every time he did it, without fail. It soon became his signature HELLO."

WHAT READERS SAY
There is a good message throughout about healthy eating and it is also very funny which kept my little one engaged until the end. Totally recommend especially if you have a fussy eater.
This is perfect for fussy eating pre-schoolers. My daughter didn't really enjoy vegetables but after reading this with her she became a little more open to trying broccoli and even cooking with me. We loved it!
I read this with my grandkids and they loved it, especially the fart part, kids just love that. They also loved the characters, and now refer to the vegetables by the character names here. The book is good fun, nice for bedtime reading but also quiet afternoons.
Available in Paperback and E-book
