The Bad Guys: Episode 7: Do-you-think-he-saurus?! by Aaron Blabey
The Bad Guys book 7, Scholastic, 2018. ISBN 9781760279493
(Age: 6+) Highly recommended. Do-you-think-he-saurus?! will
need no promotion to fans of the Bad Guys as they time travel
through space, landing on the exact spot they wanted, but at the
wrong time - 65 million years in the past.
Readers will cheer as the Bad Guys face a fierce dinosaur while they
try to repair their time machine and get back to earth in time to
save it from the evil alien.
Even though this book follows on from The
Bad Guys: Episode 6, new readers to the series will
quickly catch onto the characters and the plot and they will be
swept along laughing out loud at the antics of the dinosaur and the
Bad Guys. Blabey also has a little fun looking at the qualities of
leadership that will fascinate kids and the drawings of the
characters are a joy to examine.
To add to the reader's enjoyment is a pilot episode, "The glamorous
life of Dr Rupert Marmalade", at the back of the book and adults and
kids alike will have a laugh at the take-off of reality shows and
the huge ego of Dr Marmalade.
This is a series that will give any readers a lift as they laugh
along with Blabey's fabulous sense of humour and hilarious drawings.
