Review

"Bradley and the Dinosaur has to be one of the most adorable, incredible, and entertaining children books I have ever come across. As a mother who is keen on sharing astonishing books with fellow parents for their children, I am always on the lookout for the next best upcoming read, and it is safe for me to write that Bradley and the Dinosaur is that read!

Bradley and the Dinosaur is an astounding and memorable book that will have your children and children you know captivated as well as entertained and in awe throughout the book.

My children adored this book, and they wanted to read it numerous times, and I believe this is thanks to the original story that combines many entertaining themes and because it is easy to read. There is no use of complicated or technical words throughout the book; instead, it is written in an easy to read and a flawless way which will captivate and alight young readers minds with amazement." - Aimee Ann, reviewer and founder of REDHEADED BOOK LOVER

"As a connoisseur of children's literature I can honestly say Julian Hilton's are extremely well crafted and have all the right ingredients to make them stand proud alongside the countless other classics on my bookshelf.I have been privileged to share all three of Julian's books in an interactive style to a family audience a number of times and they are an absolute pleasure to read aloud.The illustrations are as engaging as the words with plenty to look at/spot and talk about on each page; you and yours are guaranteed a treat full of fun, surprises and good natured humour."- Rob Pudner, Lead Performer Entertainingly Different

"One of the most creative minds I think I've ever come across!" - Pippa Quelch, BBC Radio Devon

From the Back Cover

"He thought about what he should do,
then offered the creature a daisy or two.
The monster munched then started to roar.
Bradley had discovered a dinosaur!"

Julian Hilton is a writer and musician who lives beside the seaside in the magical county of Devon, England.

Born in England, the same week Get Back was in the charts, Julian always fancied being a Beatle, but could not sing like Paul Mccartney. Still, much like the fab four, he would much like to contribute to the world in some small way. Using a vivid imagination for the impossible, he seems much more likely to tell tall tales of adventures you can have while still getting back in time for your tea...(or 'dinner' as it's known elsewhere outside the Northwest of England).

Author of the successful Bradley's Magic Adventures (Bradley and the Dinosaur, Bradley and the Magic Carpet and Bradley and the Rocket) and the Read and Learn series (Jumbo Giant Sausages, The Button and the Bean), These books have brought smiles to thousands of children and hundreds of 5-star reviews. Julian has been interviewed on BBC radio and his books have been read online by Little Radio and Entertainingly Different and Miss Jessica's World.

Julian's books have won awards from Reader's Favorite as well as Purple and Royal Dragonfly. Regularly topping their charts on Amazon they are hits with young boys and girls alike who love adventure, with a sense of fun and the fantastic.

A new Read and Learn Adventure is coming out this year.

I liked that this was a fun fantasy for young children. The illustrations are all well done. The rhythm and rhyming are not spot on throughout the book, but this doesn't take away from the delightful tale.

This is a very interesting book to spark your child's imagination. The illustrations are superb and the storytelling is terrific.
Bradley's mum needed flowers for the table. Bradley went out to pick them for her. He found flowers everywhere. He saw the best one and then it was gone. He turned around to see who took the flower, maybe a bird or cat. A humongous head on a long neck came into the garden. It was followed by shoulders and two stubby legs. He just kept coming. What was he? What did he do besides take flowers?

3.0 out of 5 stars DAY WITH THE DINOSAURS
Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2019
Verified Purchase
When Bradley enters the garden to gather some flowers for his mother, he hears a strange noise. A giant head appears, and the creature grows bigger. Bradley offers the creature some flowers to munch on. They are soon friends.

Bradley hangs on to the creature’s tail. Soon they have fallen down a hole when they enter a land of dinosaurs. Readers learn a few of their names. Many hours pass before Bradley’s adventure ends and he returns home empty-handed. Bradley has given all his flowers away.

The illustrations are lovely. Preschoolers and kindergarten readers who love dinosaurs will enjoy the story. Even though the rhyme is sometimes off and some of the plot connections are weak, the book is a fun read aloud or bedtime story for little ones.

My name is Ellie & I'm 13. I discovered this book on Instagram & thought I'd check it out. It's a sweet, cute story, but the artwork is BEAUTIFUL! I have a 4-year-old cousin who is super into dinosaurs, so Mom just ordered o paperback copy to be sent to him. I highly recommend for any other dino-crazy kids or anyone else who really appreciates amazing art!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely children's book.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 29, 2018

I bought 2 copies, one for my grandson aged 3 1/2 and one for my partners nephew who is 6 years old. Both gifts have been a success. I bought the one for my grandson along with some other books for Christmas and they are kept at my house for when he comes to visit. He liked this one so much I had to give in and let him 'borrow' it for a while. The 6 year old is learning to read and enjoys reading this to his younger brother. For me this book is exactly how children's books should be.. A nice simple adventure tale that the children can follow that stimulates their imagination. Not too long and not too short and with lovely illustrations too.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful, Gentle Story About A Boy And A Dinosaur
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 13, 2019
Verified Purchase
This is a very gentle story written in rhyme about a boy who finds a dinosaur in his garden. I could tell that my sons were dreaming about their own dinosaurs after we had read this book. And I was, too..... The rhymes flow well, the story is engaging for even little kids, and the illustrations are absolutely adorable. Julian Hilton's warm and caring voice combined with Jacqueline East's adorable drawing style make this book stand out, such that my boys pick it regularly from the many books we have in our bookshelf. Overall, I can only highly recommend this book.

Super cute story told in rhyme about a boy’s imagination as he visits a world of dinosaurs. I’m not going to give away the plot...but it is a lovely bedtime story with soft illustrations that will be a perfect bedtime read for little ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real 'feel good' colourful and exciting read for kids
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 14, 2016
Verified Purchase
What a lovely book. From the front cover onwards, it's got a real 'feel good' factor. The story is engaging and takes a couple of unexpected turns along the way. The use of language is perfect for the age group it's aimed at and especially liked the use of 'tea' for evening meal. The illustrations are exciting and magical and the whole book harks back to a more innocent era which children still adore. My son (whose name is actually Dino ;-) loves it and goes back to it time after time! Would recommend to anyone with young kids.
