Synopsis

Millions of years ago, prehistoric animals roamed the earth, and the noisiest among them all were two terrible pterosaur twins, Rotten and Rascal. The reason they were always so noisy is easy enough to understand: they quarreled constantly. If this ongoing problem sounds familiar both to parents and kids who read this funny tale, they’ll also be entertained by the surprise ending—a very unusual event that finally puts a stop to the squabbling siblings’ quarreling. Here is the perfect aid for every family that has quarreling little monsters of its own. Large, bright color illustrations on every page.
