Move over, Rudolph! It’s time for the Christmasaurus to lead Santa’s sleigh. The Christmasaurus is a dinosaur who lives with Santa Claus and his elves at the North Pole. More than anything, he wants to fly with Santa’s reindeer on Christmas Eve! But no matter how hard he tries, he can’t seem to figure out how to fly. . . . Until one Christmas Eve, when he meets a young boy in a wheelchair who has a wonderful idea. What if all the Christmasaurus needs is someone to believe in him? With playful, rhyming text, international bestselling author Tom Fletcher adapts part of his novel into a heartwarming picture book about friendship and the power of believing that is sure to become a new Christmas classic.
