I Wish There Were Dinosaurs by Amanda Niland

Illustrated by Christina Booth

 Have you ever wanted to see a dinosaur? Not just a skeleton in a museum, but a real live HUGE dinosaur? It would certainly be exciting, but maybe dinosaurs are better left to our imaginations. 

On a trip to the zoo our narrator imagines how great it would be if there were dinosaurs there. He is all set to petition the zoo when he begins to wonder if the zoo really could contain the dinosaurs and what would happen if they got out.

Amanda Niland grew up in Sydney, where she spent most of her childhood reading. She studied music at university, and then decided to be an early childhood teacher, so that she could share her two favourite things – books and music – with young children. Inspired by children’s enthusiasm, she began to write her own stories and songs. I Wish There Were Dinosaurs is Amanda’s first picture book. She lives in Sydney.
