The diggersaurs are off on an adventure, using their skills to hunt for treasure in this rip-roaring, rhyming romp. And it isn't long before they find an unexpected new pre-historic friend.

What do you get when you cross a digger and a dinosaur?

A diggersaur (of course!)

These mighty beasts are the perfect mixture of two childhood favourite things, and they're off on a wonderful rhythmic, rhyming adventure full of funny details to spot and noisy diggersaur sounds to shout out loud. This book is a colourful burst of fun from this fantastic debut illustrator.
