MY REVIEW
I have been loving all the series about Rex the dinosaur, who is almost human, the reason I like Rex the dinosaur is this is a series of stories that are different and exciting. Rex is in disguise at the museum. Yikes! Rex is freaked out at the sight of dinosaurs skeleton bones that people come to look at. But there’s strange things happening in the museum where things are being moved around. Rex and Sandra are on a mission to find out the what are the funny noises and weird things moving about at night are. I loved the surprise finding out who living in afterlife, coming alive at night. Parents, teachers, Rex, Dinosaur in Disguise, Mystery Museum book is a win all around, for children, it’s funny and, has great way of introducing ancient history.
