Hello! It's me, Ruby Thumb. Me and my dad have loads of amazing adventures in Dinotropolis - an incredible island, full of dinosaurs who live just like us humans do. And when we go there using our special magic Ammonite shell, we turn into dinosaurs too!

I can't wait to tell you all about our next adventure. It was fantastic - I got to be a real-life dino detective! Me and dad had to solve the mystery of a missing fossilised dinosaur egg . . . and we discovered something amazing along the way . . . !
