Fed up with being Mark's little brother, Gregory turns into G-Rex, an obstreperous dinosaur who drives his family away. However, Gregory misses his brother and regrets breaking Mark's trophy, so he changes back into a boy, and things improve between the brothers. While it's easy to sympathize with Gregory's frustration, the story seems disjointed at times. Energetic watercolors depict G-Rex's antics.
