Say hello to Charlie the Crocodile and Wilbur the Turtle. The maze-loving pals lived 200 million years ago, when dinosaurs still roamed the earth--so their neighborhood is filled with thrills. That’s why young readers who share Charlie and Wilbur’s passion for puzzles and dinos will happily grab a pencil and join the friendly reptiles on their adventures. As they wander through caves, up hills, near red-hot volcanoes, and by the cool sea, they’ll unravel great all-in-color mazes about the fabulous prehistoric beasts they see. It’s a smart combination of story and solving, complete with fun dinosaur facts throughout. Among the featured creatures: iguanodons, scelidosaurs, velociraptors, triceratops, apatosaurs, and the awesome T-Rex.
