In The Lost Plains, where dinosaurs roam the wild west, Josh Sanders dreams of becoming a legendary dinosaur cowboy. Inspired by his hero, Terrodactyl Bill, who captured a T-rex, Josh sets his sights on an even greater challenge: capturing a giganotosaurus, the largest predator known. With his trusty triceratops, Charge, and friends Abi and Sam, Josh embarks on a daring adventure. Will courage and teamwork be enough to conquer the ultimate beast? Discover the thrilling quest that tests the limits of bravery and friendship in this exciting tale filled with real dino facts.

From the publisher

Welcome to The Lost Plains! A wild west frontier where dinosaurs never went extinct.Josh Sanders will do whatever it takes to become the next great dinosaur cowboy! He’s pretty confident in his skills–after all, he did win this year’s Settlement Race with Charge, his speed-demon of a triceratops. So when news breaks that legendary dino-wrangler Terrodactyl Bill has captured a T-rex, it’s clear to Josh that it’s time to follow in the footsteps of his personal hero. But how the heck is he supposed to top nabbing a T-rex? After a little brainstorming (and a lot of iguanodon -herding) Josh knows what he has to do–bag himself a giganotosaurus, the biggest, baddest meat-eater in existence! Josh may have Charge and best friends Abi and Sam on his side, but this will be no easy feat. It’s gonna take a whole lotta courage (and rope) to pull this one off…This wildly entertaining new chapter book series for ages 7 and up features exciting illustrations and real dino facts! A great way to get kids reading.
