About this item

A family brings a most unusual souvenir home after vacation in this classic picture book from the brilliant mind that brought you The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore.. The Lazardo family has brought back a peculiar souvenir from their trip to Africa ... a dinosaur! Ah, but Bob is the friendly sort of dinosaur.

Bob is an instant neighborhood hit ... until his love of chasing cars with his dog pals stirs up trouble with the police for "disturbing the peace." But its the Pimlico Pirates opening game and Bobs love of baseball might just be his get-out-of-jail-free card ...
