Phil and Buzz are teenaged cousins who join Buzz's naturalist parents and little sister, Kitsy, on a summer-long research trip to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. It is the height of the 1950s uranium boom in the Southwest, and the boys sneakily get hold of a Geiger counter to hunt for the element, not realizing that mining is illegal in the national park. Still, the Geiger counter helps to solve a mystery that has plagued the campers all summer long: the constant presence throughout their adventures of a strange character they call "The Dinosaur." Along the way, the boys are introduced to the canyon's natural history, from Kaibab squirrels to mountain lions, bats, and more.
Kids will love this hilarious fairy tale adventure packed with clever twists, familiar characters and page-turning fun.
