Watch out for the Oviraptor, the dinosaur that steals eggs and oval things! If it smells wee, it will sniff out the boy who wet the bed, and steal his balls. Didi hates wearing a nappy at night, and is determined not to let that happen.
Didi often wets his bed, but he doesn’t like going to the toilet at bed-time, and he hates the feel of a wet nappy. One day, reading a book with Mum, he sees a picture of an oviraptor, a dinosaur that steals eggs and oval things, runs faster than the wind, and never comes home empty-handed. Didi checks his balls, and grows more and more worried that the Oviraptor will sniff him out. What if it steals his balls? Didi is determined not to let the Oviraptor get its claws on them!
The story of the Oviraptor was inspired by the experience of the author’s son. This cute, reassuring story encourages very young children to overcome their fears. It shows them that it’s better to face difficult things than to turn away from them. And that when the problem is solved, they know they have learned something and can be proud of what they have achieved!
