An upROARiously funny take on following your wildest dreams, from the bestselling creator of Dinosaur Comics
Being a regular old human is kind of a drag. That's why Sal is not going to be a teacher or doctor or lawyer when she grows up. She is going to grow up to be an awesome Tyrannosaurus Rex. Her brother thinks it's impossible, but Sal sure shows him! And in the beginning, being a T. Rex is AWESOME. But did you know that it's kind of hard to make friends when you are a super-giant, super-loud, super-stompy dinosaur? If only there were a way for Sal to be 100% awesome, 100% of the time...
Eisner Award-winning writer Ryan North makes his picture book debut with this bright, bold, and quirky story about finding--and taming--the beast within.

What reviewers said
"Sal is engaging from Page 1.... Readers will enjoy her antics and topsy-turvy relationships again and again. Hilarious fun, emotionally poignant, and just a little bit sassy."
"[North and Lowery] give T. rex a fresh twist by asking what the toothy theropod can teach children about harnessing great power for good."
"Young wild things fond of Bob Shea’s Dinosaur vs. series might find toothsome food for thought here."
"Expect a lot of T. rexes on the playground after reading this book, and use it to help kids find self-confidence that comes from within (in the form of a T. rex, of course)."
