Search - The Enormous Egg

This is a charming, wonderfully written story about a boy whose hen lays an enormous egg....and out hatches a triceratops! It's a wonderful story about a boy, his new, unexpected pet, and the uproar his new little dinosaur causes in his sleepy little town. I absolutely loved this story as a child myself, and then found it again to read to my own children. It's an absolute keeper, one that all generations can enjoy. I was a huge reader as a child (still am!), and of all the hundreds and hundreds of books I read as a kid, this is one of the few that I remember so well and so fondly. Great book!

This is a paperback book.
Nate, a 12-year-old boy living in New Hampshire, takes over the care of an enormous egg laid by one of the family's hens, and the last thing he expects to hatch from it is a triceratops! Illustrations.
