A Jurassic field trip told without words

A time-traveling class visits the Jurassic, where a student’s pursuit of a lunch box leads to separation from the group and an unexpected meal shared with dinosaurs. The wordless picture-book format puts the adventure in the artwork, with the sequence moving from a classroom excursion to a dinosaur encounter and a reunion at the bus. Volcanoes, prehistoric creatures, and a pizza-loving carnivore shape the story’s playful adventure, while the lunch-box chase gives its scenes a clear thread for young picture-book readers to follow.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 who enjoy dinosaur and prehistoric-creature stories
  • Young readers who like wordless picture books and visual storytelling
  • Families seeking an adventure centered on a class field trip

Book overview

It's time for a field trip! Board the yellow time travel bus and blast into the Jurassic past in this new wordless picture book in the Field Trip Adventures Series by award-winning creator John Hare.

Volcanoes smolder. Towering dinosaurs munch leaves from the trees. And this class is going to see them up close--maybe way too close!

When a rascally kepodactylus snatches a student's lunch box, the student gives chase and gets it back but also becomes separated from their class. They decide to eat their lunch while waiting to be rescued and end up sharing it with friendly dinosaurs. But when the dinosaurs suddenly disappear, the student is left face to face with a gigantic crafty carnivore who doesn't just want that slice of pizza for lunch! Fortunately there is a surprise rescue and the student makes it back to the time travel bus where human friends are waiting with snacks to share.

With engaging artwork and lots of laughs, John Hare's wordless picture book is sure to captivate readers with its expressive characters and winning story. Don't miss out the rest of the Field Trip Adventure series and join the class for Field Trip to the Moon, Field Trip to the Ocean Deep, and Field Trip to Volcano Island!
