This was a fun, beginning chapter book. At only a little over 100 pages it is perfect for the 2nd and 3rd grade readers. Mike is traveling with his archeologist dad. When he gets bored and wanders off he finds a real T-Rex. He also meets a girl named Shannon who is trying to get the T-Rex back to its own time and Jeff who brought the T-Rex there in the first place. Together Mike and Shannon outwit Jeff and get Sam the T-Rex home. But, shortly after Mike finds dinosaur eggs. Turns out Sam is a Samantha...
So, the book ends with a "cliffhanger" of sorts and you can tell there will be more adventures with Shannon, Mike, and dinosaurs. Normally I hate that but...I looks like this particular series will roll right out...there are at least 2 more set to be released this year so young readers won't have long to wait.
