Edwina: The Dinosaur Who Didn't Know She Was Extinct

By Mo Willems

What happens when a dinosaur doesn't know she’s extinct? Find out in this comical cartoon-style picture book!

Everyone knows Edwina. She's the dinosaur who plays with the children and helps little old ladies across the road. Everyone loves her ... except the class know-it-all Reginald Von Hoobie-Doobie. Reginald knows dinosaurs are extinct, and he is ready to prove it. But will anyone listen? And if they do, what will happen to Edwina?

  • Eagle-eyed readers can try to spot Willem's well-loved characters, Pigeon and Knuffle Bunny, hidden amongst the pages.
  • "Mo Willems is the biggest talent to emerge in children’s books in the ‘00s," The New York Times.
