Author interview

A young boy’s love for dinosaurs sparks a wild adventure of imagination in Rotter’s hilarious picture book. Dinosaurs have always fascinated Milo. When he poses the question to his dad if it’s possible for him to be a dinosaur too, he’s met with doubt. However, Milo isn’t one to give up easily and sets out on a mission to prove them wrong! With determination and a touch of humor, Milo embarks on an adventure to discover his own unique dino-self. Rotter’s prose is delightfully child-friendly, with a whimsical tone that mimics a lighthearted read-aloud book, and her clever use of playful dinosaur names adds a cheeky touch, showcasing the imaginative and active nature of young children at play. Milo’s antics are sure to evoke laughter from readers. And with a poignant yet heartwarming ending, the story delivers its powerful message of embracing individuality and fostering creativity. Through Milo’s transformation into “Milo-a-saurus,” the book teaches children to embrace their unique selves and break free from societal expectations. Vaughan Duck’s vibrant illustrations burst with warmth and energy, perfectly suited for a cozy home setting. Lively and insightful, this funny tale celebrates the boundless joy of imagination and the power of self-expression.
