1-3I Can Read Book series.
Illustrated by
Don Bolognese
&
Don Bolognese.
Readers of this advanced I Can Read book will welcome a story about unexpected discoveries, attempted swindling, and quick-wittedness when young Ned finds a fossilized dinosaur skeleton on his father's Wyoming ranch. Appropriately in a book for skilled early independent readers (who don't need to depend on the illustrations to decode the text), the watercolors sketch in the personalities and the sere Western landscape.
