What could that be 

 

down in the sea?

Is it a fish?

A snail?

A mermaid’s tail?

No, it’s bigger than that . . .

a LOT bigger . . .

it’s Sea Rex!


Join Cordelia and her cretacious companions as they spend a memorable day at the beach, as only dinosaurs can do!

PRAISE FOR SEA REX:

"Idle’s soft, colored-pencil illustrations exude playfulness... A cheery outing and guaranteed good time."—Booklist

PRAISE FOR CAMP REX:
 "...this is certain to raise more than a few giggles..." —Kirkus  "...the deadpan writing and careful compositions work in tandem for maximum comic impact." —Publishers Weekly "...sure to elicit giggles from the picture-book set." —Booklist "Sweet and subtle with a liberal pinch of silly..." —BCCB

PRAISE FOR TEA REX: "Sure to be enjoyed by tea-party enthusiasts, and even dino fans with no use for a teapot will find themselves drawn to this clever tale of a not-entirely-civilized beast of the past."  —Kirkus  “…Idle has a gift for comic composition...” —Publishers Weekly "The tension between the text and illustrations provides much to amuse the youngest tea-party hosts." —School Library Journal "A fine example of how words and pictures can lock horns to charming effect." —Booklist

Molly Idle graduated from Arizona State University with a BFA in drawing and began her career at DreamWorks Feature Animation Studios. She now lives in Arizona with her husband, two sons, and two snuggly cats. Tea Rex is her first book. View titles by Molly Idle
