Leilong’s Too Long!
Publisher: Gecko Press
Leilong is a brontosaurus, but he’s a dinosaur with a difference: this brontosaurus carries children to school. His long neck is a perfect slide for children living on the top floor of a block of flats, and there’s plenty of room on his back for everyone.
Yet, Leilong feels awkward in the city. He’s longer than a tennis court and often holds up traffic. He weighs as much as five elephants and has broken several bridges. Unfortunately, there have been some complaints.
When the school is forced to take the brontosaurus bus off the road, Leilong feels sad and hides out at the gym. But when the children come to visit him, they discover that their brontosaurus friend has cried enough tears to fill a swimming pool – and makes the perfect water slide…
The sequel to the adorable Leilong the Library Bus is a heartfelt story about a sweet dinosaur, reminding young readers that no matter who you are, there’s a place and a role for everyone in life – especially if you’re kind. Bei Lynn’s adorable illustrations will make everyone want their very own Leilong – surely the most fun way to get around a city.
