In dining halls of long ago
When dinosaurs sat down to dine,
Did prehistoric dinner-ladies
Keep them all in line?
What’s the REAL reason the dinosaurs died out? Can anyone rescue Class 2M from the wild dinner-ladies? And what will happen when Class 2M meet a lion?
This is a funny and brilliant debut collection from the author of the bestselling Stinkbomb and Ketchup-Face books.
