Publisher Description:
From beloved duo Elise Broach and David Small comes an adorable picture book about a little boy who gets a free dino with purchase

Free gift with purchase: Dinosaurs
Wait--free what?

Just when a little boy thinks he's going to die of boredom from running errands with his mom, the most remarkable, the most stupendous thing happens. He discovers that on this day, and this day only, stores everywhere are giving away a very special treat with any purchase. No, not the usual lollipop or sticker. Something bigger. Much, MUCH bigger. It's a dream come true, except...what exactly do you do with these Jurassic treats? And how do you convince Mom to let you keep them?
