Bookroo's summary

Maximus dreams of a pet dinosaur, but a mix-up with Eggasaurus, Inc. delivers more eggs than expected. As the eggs pile up, Max and his dad must find a solution before their home is overrun by baby dinosaurs. Will they manage to send the eggs back, or will the dinosaurs hatch and take over? Dive into this whimsical tale of unexpected surprises and family teamwork.

From the publisher

In this funny and winsome epistolary picture book, a young boy who orders a dinosaur egg ends up with more than he–or his dad–bargained for! All Maximus wants is a pet dinosaur–is that really too much to ask? But when his dad tells him he must send the egg back to where it came from, a mysterious company called Eggasaurus, Inc, a hiccup in communication leads to Max getting more…and more…and MORE eggs! Can he and his dad find a compromise before the eggs hatch and the baby dinosaurs take over their home?
