This little girl has been watching her grandpa for a very long time, and she is almost absolutely certain that he is a dinosaur. So why is it that nobody believes her? Why can’t anyone else see what she sees? He roars! (And no, it’s not just a snore.) He has green skin! (And no, he’s not from outer space.) He even has a tail! (And no, he’s not a horse!) Determined to get to the bottom of this mystery, the little girl goes straight to the source. It’s time to ask Grandpa once and for all: is he a dinosaur? Just like Gorillas in Our Midst, this book is all silliness and fun. Comic artist Richard Fairgray’s illustrations are filled with wonderful, quirky details for kids to discover with each read. Kids will love that they can see that Grandpa is a dinosaur when nobody else can. And, of course, a story like this can’t end without a surprising twist!

Life in the dinosaur world was full of dangerous creatures, all looking for a meal. Predators lurked everywhere and often did not wait for eggs to hatch before chowing them down. As if on pure instinct, dinosaurs protect their eggs in hopes that at least some would hatch and grow to become healthy adults. Chances of survival was always low. Through study and research of dinosaur fossils, inferences and suggestions have been made that maybe dinosaurs actually had a Heart(s). However, there is still so much we do not know about dinosaurs and their mysterious world. Fossil studies, allow us to learn more about them and the kind of lives they had but only to a certain extent. Many of the studies focus on things such as shapes, colours and texture of their skin or even how they communicate and so on based on whatever they could get out of a dinosaur fossil. However, to the dinosaur enthusiast, there are still many unanswered questions. Hence many feel that dinosaurs are an interesting topic because much is still left to our imagination. The Heart is not just a piece of muscle. If dinosaurs had Hearts, Kiri maybe the first of its kind. Kiri is a gentle and loving Dracorex (a kind of Pachycephalosaurus) that lived during the dinosaur age. The dinosaur age were dangerous times and life doesn’t get any easier for plant-eaters/herbivores like Kiri. However, being the first to have a Heart, he doesn’t know what it is and what it is for. He knows that there is something living inside him, beating constantly at his chest. His life is a voyage of learning and understanding that piece of muscle and discovering its bigger purpose. So as he goes on this journey, he begins to learn to listen to his Heart, interacting with his mind and learns more about himself. He learns that listening to his Heart would make the difference between him and the other dinosaurs. This could have been the start of an evolution, a big change for their continued existence and survival. Or it may simply be God's experiment. Kiri looked different from the others in his family. In fact, he looked more like a meat-eater born into a family of plant-eaters. This made him a misfit in the herd of plant-eating dinosaurs. They often misunderstood his gentle and loving nature. The other dinosaurs in the herd saw him as a strange looking dinosaur that could be a threat to the herd. His grandfather, old and full of wisdom, was the only one that saw beyond that. He believed that Kiri’s birth was part of a bigger shift in the world they lived in. It was a time when landscapes were changing and dinosaurs were reaching their "end of the road". Feeling lonely without any friends in the beginning, Kiri often wondered why he looked so different and wished that he wasn’t. As he grew, Kiri and the world around him began to understand and accept each other. He eventually made new wonderful friends and realized that being different wasn’t so bad after all. But that was not all there is in his life’s journey. There was always that something else, something that didn't quite add up … and it had to do with the reason he was gifted with a Heart. This curiosity was constantly in his mind and inspired him to face and explore new adventures. Together with the help of his buddies and the never-stopping beating inside his chest, Kiri lived his life’s journey experiencing and learning some of life’s valuable virtues that would one day bring him closer to his true calling. When even at an age of darkness where natural instincts ruled, there can be hope and love if there was Heart. In this age, where there is constant news of turmoil and chaos from all parts of the world, it maybe beneficial to go within our Hearts and examine what’s going on inside. Most of the time, that should lead us straight to the root of our problems. For the sake of our future generation, it is worth reminding our children and ourselves why we have Hearts. Within Kiri’s story and adventures are themes involving friendship, accepting our differences, respect, sharing, self-believe, courage, honesty and so on, are simply virtues worth instilling among all, young and old.
