CONGRATULATIONS! You are now the proud owner of a pet dinosaur. Your new pet will need lots of love. She will also need training, exercise and (very) regular feeding.
But having a new pet isn’t all fun and games. It’s hard work too . . . especially when your pet is a T-REX!
A delightfully funny celebration of the joys and responsibilities of having a pet, from the creator of Tiger in a Tutu, shortlisted for the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize
Fabi Santiago is the author of Tiger in a Tutu, shortlisted for the Waterstones Picture Books Prize. Fabi was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and has been making pictures ever since she could hold her first crayon. After studying art and design, Fabi went travelling and came across the MA in Children’s Book Illustration at the Cambridge School of Art, from where she graduated in 2014. Fabi’s illustrations are full of movement and bold limited colours, and her media of choice is screen-printing. She likes the outdoors, cycling, dance and theatre, all of which are inspiration for her stories. Fabi lives in London with her ginger fellow and her cat, Porridge.
