Desmond the Dinosaur
I wrote and illustrated my first story about Desmond the Dinosaur in 1967, after buying an oak carving of a dinosaur. He's a rather miserable looking dinosaur, so I thought I would write a story explaining why he was sad. At the time I was running a printing company, and we decided to print my book along with some other stories.
Sadly, Desmond is now out of print, and perhaps looking for a new publisher. In the meantime I have paperback copies of the four books shown below. I can send you the four titles for £15 including post and packing, but please email me before sending a cheque, to make sure that I am around, and the books are still available.
Update
The very first book in the Desmond series, Desmond the Dinosaur is now available to buy from lulu.com.
Desmond is excited to be invited to a fancy dress party. But his costume scares the other guests.
Desmond enjoys meeting all the animals in the zoo. The keeper would like him to stay, but Desmond isn't too sure.
Desmond hurts his foot and has to have an injection! It is soon over and Desmond agrees that it didn't hurt much.
Even dinosaurs need a holiday! Desmond's having fun in France, until the monsters come to town. Then it is up to him to sort it out...
