Description

An uplifting tale about perseverance and resilience, by Rachel Bright and Chris Chatterton, creators of the bestselling The Worrysaurus and The Hugasaurus!

Speedysaurus gets her very first bicycle! She is excited to start speeding along and dreams of entering a bicycling competition and winning all the medals! But she keeps WIBBLING and WOBBLING until she FALLS. This little dinosaur is just about ready to give up, but Grannysaurus reminds her that a shaky start doesn't have to mean a wobbly finish. Can Speedysaurus find a new way of looking at things and turn her day around?

An empowering story with a reassuring reminder that it is not always a smooth and speedy start when trying something new. From the author of the bestselling The Lion Inside and Love Monster, and talented illustrator, Chris Chatterton.
