SPECIAL SILLY SATURDAY WITH STEPHEN SHASKAN

Calling all dinosaur lovers:Stephen Shaskan will be reading from his fabulous book The Three Tricerotops Tuff!

We can probably talk him into playing some of his super fun music too.

Three Triceratops brothers by the name of Tuff are on a mission to find some grub. There’s just one thing standing in their way: a Tyrannosaurus Rex who has a very different idea of what’s for dinner! The Tuff brothers must find a way to outsmart this bossy beast, for their very lives—and a bounty of delicious greens—hang in the balance.

This vividly illustrated story transplants the classic tale of “The Three Billy Goats Gruff” into the Cretaceous period, where dino fans of all ages will enjoy seeing their favorite subjects use their smarts to battle it out for dinner.

Stephen Shaskan graduated from Rhode island School of Design. Since then, he has worked as an early childhood educator and played in four rockbands. He lives in Minneapolis with his beautiful, and wonderfully talented wife, Trisha Speed Shaskan, and their adoringly curmudgeon of a cat, Eartha. A Dog is a Dog (Chronicle Books)was the first picture book that he has written and illustrated.
