Gary Northfield’s TeenyTinySaurs storm Gosh!

By John Freeman on May 25, 2013

Excellent childrens’ books illustrator and Phoenix-contributor Gary Northfield has released The Terrible Tales of the TeenyTinySaurs, a delightful new kid’s book from Walker Books – and Gosh London are celebrating it with a launch party on Friday 31st May.

Is it possible to fly to the moon in a bubble of snot? Can you really have an argument with a cloud? Are there bogey monsters at the bottom of the garden?

All these questions and more are explored in The Terrible Tales of the TeenyTinySaurs – an hysterical and charming collection of comic strip adventures, following a teeny tiny gang of dinosaurs as they wind each other up and muddle their way through the myths and mysteries of prehistoric life.
