Imagine a world where dinosaurs have survived… and evolved. Welcome to the world of Supersaurs! Find out more about the first book in this exciting adventure series, ideal for readers aged 9+.

Bea Kingsley lives in a world where humans live side by side with 'saurs' – a world in which her parents disappeared when she was just a baby.

So when her and her formidable grandmother and her godfather suddenly embark on a trip to the remote islands of Aru to see the elusive Raptors of Paradise, Bea starts asking questions. Was the journey to the islands a dangerous mistake, or the beginning of the adventure of a lifetime?

We ask all winners to share their child's thoughts on the book. Everyone who posts their detailed feedback by midday, Monday 11 December will be entered into a prize draw to win a £100 Love2shop voucher.

Thanks so much for our copy!
DS (10 and in yr6) is really enjoying it so far - he has just finished chapter three and very keen to find out what happens next, he predicts lots of adventures ahead! He likes the characters (I was quite amused by Theodore Logan as a character name ) and says the dialogue is quite funny at times, also particularly keen on the little chapter sub headings as a taster of what's to come in the next few pages.
Apparently, the illustrations are "probably the best I have seen!" - he thinks they are very detailed, likes the shading and has declared them "so cool". He likes the smaller illustrations that are peppered throughout, too...as well as the full page ones.
A great start, I'll come back once he's finished with the final verdict, but I'm sure it will be a very positive one!
Thanks again

My 9 year old Tommy absolutely loved this book and has nearly finished it. Gorgeous illustrations and a fun/engaging book. Thoroughly recommend

I received this book this morning....I assume that I have won a copy and my child has to review?! I have not received any email
Notification or information with the book, so originally thought I had ordered it without remembering. Anyway, my child has started it and we will post a review once he had finished.

What a great book this is. My 10 year old granddaughter was thrilled and enthralled with it. Thank you Mumsnet. It was a great "journey" and she loved the pictures as well.

Hi @HoofWankingSpangleCunt - sorry to hear you couldn't submit the form. Occasionally errors like this do occur so it's worth trying it on a different device. If you send your details to [email protected] by 4pm today (Mumsnet name, name and address and age of child - to check it's the appropriate age range for the book), I can add you to the form. We only pass the relevant details onto the publisher if you're selected (winners picked at random), and if you are, you must be happy to post your child's feedback on this discussion thread. Thanks!

Is it my phone playing up? I filled in details, got as far as ticking the agreement box and then no way of sending the form.
