Synopsis: Dinosaur Comes to Town (1963) by Gene Darby, illustrated by Art Seiden, is a whimsical children's tale from the Top Top Tales series published by Whitman. The story centers on a forest community thrown into a frenzy when a meat-eating dinosaur is spotted heading their way.
The animals—aware that they’re made of meat—panic, and a squirrel takes on the urgent task of warning everyone before it’s too late. But as the dinosaur strolls past without attacking, the forest creatures begin to wonder: why isn’t he eating anyone? The twist adds a playful layer of suspense and humor, making it a charming read for young audiences

There is some signs of light stress around the three points inside that bind the inner pages to the cover. The front cover has a child's initials written on it. The inner pages are in excellent condition. (see photos).
