The Dinosaur Bob series by William Joyce imagines what happens when a family brings a dinosaur home from safari and tries to fit him into suburban American life. Beginning with A Day with Wilbur Robinson (1988), the books establish a world where the extraordinary is treated as perfectly normal.

Dinosaur Bob and His Adventures with the Family Lazardo (1995) is the centerpiece of the series, following the enormous, friendly dinosaur as he wins over an entire town. Life with Bob and Baseball Bob round out the collection with more of Joyce’s signature blend of vintage Americana, absurd situations, and warmhearted storytelling.
