It was the middle of the night and there was a noise outside his window. He sat up and blinked. He was dreaming. No! There it was again! \u003cbr\u003eTAP...TAP TAP...TAP...\u003cbr\u003eHe slipped out of bed and crept over to the curtains. The floor was cold under his feet and the air was chilly but he hardly noticed. He reached out with one finger and nudged a crack in the curtains.\u003cbr\u003eWOOOOSH!\u003cbr\u003eSomething very fast flashed past - silver in the moonlight - and was gone. Marlin jumped back, his heart racing. \"What was that?!\" He edged forwards again. He pulled the curtains open wider this time and peered out. At first he saw nothing, but then he noticed the strange marks on the lawn. All over, the grass was churned up and muddy as if something heavy had been racing around on it. Then he saw it. A creature standing at the end of the garden. Just under the apple tree, next to the back garden gate, was a little silver dinosaur with a long whip tail and a slender neck. It cocked its head to one side, blinked and looked right at him.\u003cbr\u003eThere was no mistaking it.\u003cbr\u003eIt was one of the Troodons from the museum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dinosaur Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47034842579184,"sku":"9780992752507","price":10.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780992752507_p0.jpg?v=1763946083","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780992752507","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
