Description

"Farmer Boris and the Dinosaur," the nineteenth installment in the wildly popular and award-winning picture book series by Ted van Lieshout and Philip Hopman, is presented in the form of large storyboards. Perfect for reading aloud in daycare centers, preschools, and primary schools.

In this adventure, Farmer Boris is plowing his land for sugar beets. But then, oh no, the plow gets stuck! What could be wrong? Yes, there's something stuck in the plowshare! A giant bone! But whose animal could it be? A guinea pig? A marmot? Farmer Boris, Berend, and Sam investigate and start digging. They soon discover a hundred bones, complete with a skull. These sturdy, loose A3 plates fit perfectly in a standard story box (not included), but can also be held by the storyteller while reading aloud.

Since 2012, Ted van Lieshout and Philip Hopman have been working tirelessly on their series of books about Farmer Boris, Sam, Berend, and the farm. The two make a truly exceptional duo: Ted received the Theo Thijssen Prize in 2009, and Philip Hopman won the Max Velthuijs Prize in 2022, each for their awe-inspiring oeuvre. As a true team, they have created a bright, cheerful, and above all, warm world around Farmer Boris. Young children will want to look at the illustrations on the large storyboards again and again—and their parents will enjoy it too.
