News Hounds: The Dinosaur Discovery

Laura James’s love of storytelling began at an early age and led her to undertake a degree in Film Studies and an MA in Writing for Young People at Bath Spa University. Laura’s debut novel Captain Pug was shortlisted for the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize in 2017. Laura has two dachshunds, Brian and Florence.Charlie Alder has written and illustrated many books for children, including Daredevil Duck and Chicken Break! as well as the News Hounds series. She lives in Devon, England, with her husband and son. When not drawing chickens or dogs, Charlie can be found in her studio drinking coffee, arranging her crayons and inventing more accidental animal heroes.

A great book with lovely pictures and typography for five- to seven-year-olds who are starting to read for themselves and like dogs with multiple chins
