guest and who's a
pest.

There’s a Dinosaur on the 13th Floor, starring the ever-proper Mr. Snore.

Comic, dramatic, fast-paced illustrations reveal well-intentioned Mr. Snore’s cascading mistakes as he heroically thrusts and parries his bow and frantically steers the cake trolley across the pages. Diverse animals dressed in wedding finery border on the absurd, but none match proper Mr. Snore and his hilariously monumental proboscis. . . . A riotous, rib-tickling comedy of errors.
