Digging for Dinos

Haggis and Tank Unleashed, #2

Written by Jessica Young, Illustrated by James Burks

The adventures of Haggis and Tank continue in this new book by Jessica Young. This time the daring duo use their imaginations to go searching for dinosaurs. Their search takes them to the eggs of a triceratops. Their fun ends when a T-rex shows up. This story, like the last, has several homonyms: ate/eight, know/no, etc. Though the story is simple, it is a fun way to teach literacy. Once again, the illustrations by James Burks are the highlight of the book.
