Miggy's friends are returning to the Clan in Triassic Forest for the start of school.
Rumors of rare sightings of a Spinosaurus make Miggy go searching for a peek. Instead, she accidentally discovers a Dragon Stone.
According to the Clan's Grannies, Dragon Stones are magical only if they are kept a secret.
The day comes when even a powerful Dragon Stone may not be enough to save the Clan from ruin—until Miggy comes up with a brave and imaginative solution.
Dinosaurs *disappeared* from the earth 66 million year ago. Modern humans *appeared* on the earth about 300,000 years ago. Therefore dinosaurs and humans never lived at the same time. Miggy and her friends' story is tongue-in-cheek, anachronistic, imagined, pre-historical fiction.

History of the World
Grade 4: Mr. Serrano Assignment: Discuss the early years of civilization.
Long ago, way before my parents were born, dinosaurs ruled the earth.
This time in history was called the Ice Age. It was very cold and snowy in those days but they never canceled school.
The ice smushed the dinosaurs which is why you don't see them today.

It didn't smush my great-great-great-great-great grandparents or I wouldn't be writing this . . . .
