| Summary: | "Our school has almost nothing. A blackboard, some chairs, a teacher." The teacher is there at the door waiting for them every day.

And out there, amongst the trees, the mountains the huge boulders, the river are--dinosaurs--of every kind. And a squirrel. From children's book stars Jairo Buitrago and Rafael Yockteng comes this wonderful story of a most spectacular school day. And of a school which has nothing more than a blackboard, some chairs, and one of the best teachers anyone could ever hope for.-- |
