Scott Corbett Bronson isn't any ordinary dinosaur. For one thing, he's alive and isn't a bunch of bones collecting dust in some museum. That alone makes him rather extraordinary. But he's also invisible (when he wants to be) and he talks (just like you or me) and has an IQ of 1500 (the average, remember, being 100 or so). And he's dying to see the dinosaur exhibit in New York City's Museum of Natural History.
He's got a rotten sense of direction, though, and living in Rhode Island, he's at a loss on how to get into Manhattan. That's where Thaddeus Marsh comes in. Tad is a middle-aged bank teller who just happens by. Bronson takes a liking to Tad and, after shrinking him down to little-boy size, convinces him that the trip would be fun. So with road map in hand, the two hit the turnpike for New York and the most unbelievable episodes that happen along the way.
Any child who's ever fantasized a dinosaur of his own will fall in love with Mr. Corbett's very own Bronson. Made even more alive by Mircea Vasiliu's free pen and ink line drawings, nothing will seem impossible again.
