Dinosaur Story

November 03 2003


Imagine you could travel back in time millions of years to when dinosaurs were alive. What an amazing adventure you would have!

Maybe you would bump into a Tyrannosaurus Rex out hunting. You might watch some dinosaur eggs hatching or see a dinosaur having a snooze in the sun.

Perhaps a baby dinosaur might try to sneak into your time machine when you travel home!

Right: Maybe you'd bump into an ankylosaur like this?

We'd love to read your stories about dinosaur adventures. You could use the story opening below to start your story off, or make up your own. You could draw pictures to illustrate your story too.

'The time machine landed with a big bump. I was back in the age of the dinosaurs! My hand shook as I swiped my key card to open the door, what would I find outside?'

Any stories sent in will get a prize, (remember to tell us your address) and the best will go up in Show and Tell. Get your writing brains in gear!
