Product Description
Harry and his dinosaurs love birthday parties, so Harry's disappointed when big sister, Sam, says she's going to one - alone.

Harry decides to throw a surprise birthday party and soon even Sam helps to make the party treats. Mum invites Mr Oakley over and he is very surprised when he arrives; in fact, everyone agrees that it's the best birthday party ever!

The original Harry books by Adrian Reynolds and Ian Whybrow, of which this is the latest, are still by far the best and are much superior to the television adventures of and all associated spin off material. In this new adventure Harry's dinosaurs have their one hundredth millionth birthday party in fine style.
The illustrations are as lush and funny as ever. The dinosaurs are wonderfully expressive and playful and there are always wonderful little details that catch the eye even after repeated readings.
Harry is, as ever, at war with his sister Sam, and his revenge on her for something nasty she says to him is truly wonderful in this story. The detail for real dinosaur fans with the gingko and fern leaf decorations on the party cakes is lovely and just shows why these books are an enduring favourite with me and all my children.

I bought this book for my grandsons 2nd birthday and he loved it. This is the second Harry book I have bought him.

The book is OK. Illustrations are good, but story is quite dull and doesn't really explore the birthday subject.
As my son's birthday was approaching and he loves Harry and his bucket of dinosaurs, I bought this book hoping to teach him about birthday and all its elements (party, cake, singing, games, presents, etc.) Those things are barely mentioned.
It may be interest for children older than 3, though.

Great for toddlers who love dinosaurs
We bought this book after getting it out of the library. Unfortunately the book is smaller than expected and the dinosaurs are small and don't resemble those in the book. Read more

Another lovely Harry book
I bought this for my son, and whilst it isn't his favourite Harry book, it is still a lovely story and well worth buying if your child is a Harry fan.
