When Jacob Two-Two's father brings him back a small lizard from Kenya, it grows to enormous proportions, and to protect his now identifiable Diplodocus from frightened grown-ups, Jacob runs away with him to British Columbia.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
When his parents return from Kenya with a cute little green lizard on his eighth birthday (he?s two times two times two), Jacob Two-Two is thrilled. But it isn?t long before Jacob realizes that his new pet Dippy isn?t a lizard after all. And as months pass, it is apparent Dippy isn?t so little either. Soon Dippy is attracting all sorts of unwanted attention and before he knows it, Jacob is on the run from the Canadian government with a full-grown dinosaur to hide.
From the Hardcover edition.
“...a fable cunningly designed to delight children and parents alike...a split-level fantasy that taps an ageless sense of insolence.”
