Longing to impress a new dog, the elegant Diamond, Bob sets about digging for a worthy present. He's thrilled to uncover a massive bone, part of an enormous skeleton. He alerts the staff of The Daily Bark, the local dog-run newspaper, and it's Diamond herself who realizes that they have a dinosaur on their hands , paws. It's the scoop of the century, but Diamond's surly owner catches wind of the find and attempts to locate the skeleton in hopes of moving himself d his pup ay from Puddle for good, and the canine community bands together to thwart the selfish scheme. The sweet, silly story charms from the first page, and frequent, appealing illustrations will help keep emerging readers immersed in the narrative. Fans of the first installment will enjoy glimpses of familiar characters, but the story easily stands alone. A fetching canine comedy sure to delight and amuse.
