About this book
Dino-loving Max knows everything there is to know about dinosaurs. In fact, his super dino knowledge has given him extraordinary dino powers.
When Max transforms into superhero Kid Rex, he’s ready to use his dinosaur powers for good, whether that’s to rescue lost pirate cargo, battle baddie robots or deliver top secret messages.
But now Kid Rex faces his toughest mission ever. With the help of his sidekick Dino Dad, the little superhero needs to defeat the evil King Dust Bunny and return the residents of Toy Town safely to their homes.
Kid Rex to the Rescue is a fun, adventurous story that celebrates imagination, turning the mundane task of cleaning a messy room into a thrilling superhero mission.
Using lots of fun wordplay and great use of onomatopoeia, children will love joining in with the 'kapows', 'roars' and 'whooshes' of this high-octane, comic book-style story.
