Product Description

Product Description
A board book version of this classic Meg and Mog story. This time, one of Meg's spells goes spectacularly wrong. She is trying to conjure up eggs for tea and although she manages to make three eggs, they look rather different to usual. One by one they hatch and reveal - dinosaurs! Meg, Mog and Owl manage to look after the first two dinosaurs but then a fearsome Tyrannosaurus hatches and wants to eat them all! Meg has to try another spell to save from being eaten - again it doesn't go quite to plan but at least they're safe!

5.0 out of 5 stars Even My 10 year old enjoys this one!, 10 Aug 2001
By A Customer
We have very few books which all my 3 boys, aged 10, 7 & 3, enjoy listening to and this has to be their favourite.

Even though they have heard or read this story so many times, the fact that they can recite the story backwards holds testament to that, the ancicpation of what is going to come out of the eggs still can be seen on their faces.

With the bright illustrations and the short sentences it holds the attention of the most distracted of kids, i.e. Mine!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Our little boy's favourite bed-time read., 24 Nov 2007
By D. Chopra (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Our little man has loved this book since he was three months old. I think it's down to the bold, bright, colourful pictures which grab his attention far more than the illustrations in his other books.

It won't be long before he is able to recite the story from memory as I can myself!

One thing that bugs me about this book is the continuity error! I know this is very sad as it is after all only a children's book, but at the beginning Meg casts her spell because there are no eggs to eat for dinner. The eggs that appear subsequently hatch into dinosaurs, but then when she casts her spell at the end of the book she throws some eggs into the cauldron. Where did they come from all of a sudden?? I will be so proud when my little one spots this glaring rick!!!
