Read the story text
  1. Page 1

    Mateo hunted bugs in the garden with glee:
    an ant, a beetle, a bumblebee!

  2. Page 2

    Among the flowers, a sight to behold:
    Mateo found an egg, all green and gold!

  3. Page 3

    The egg gave a wobble, a thump and a glow.
    What was hiding inside? Oh, who could know?

  4. Page 4

    CRACK! It burst open in a dazzling light,
    and a magic wind whirled, rainbow-bright!

  5. Page 5

    Mateo opened his eyes and blinked. Oh, wow!
    A backpack and boots: a true explorer now!

  6. Page 6

    Giant ferns rose up and hid the sky,
    and a distant volcano puffed smoke up high.

  7. Page 7

    A mighty rumble shook the ground...
    Footsteps! Something BIG was around!

  8. Page 8

    Mateo laughed: it was no monster at all!
    Just Pipo, a baby T-Rex, cute and small!

  9. Page 9

    Pipo got lost while playing, you see.
    “Will you help me, Mateo? Where can Mama be?”

  10. Page 10

    Mateo and Pipo searched behind every tree:
    “Where can Mama be? Oh, where can she be?”

  11. Page 11

    Then Mateo saw a huge dinosaur up ahead.
    Was it Mama? No! It had horns on its head!

  12. Page 12

    A pterodactyl flew by, high as could be.
    “From up there, can you see? Where can Mama be?”

  13. Page 13

    In a clearing of giant rainbow flowers,
    Mateo and Pipo danced and twirled for hours.

  14. Page 14

    From a mossy rock, Mateo pointed far away:
    “A giant nest in the old trees! Hooray!”

  15. Page 15

    In the nest sat Mama with the little ones too!
    She gave a soft, happy roar, as mamas do.

  16. Page 16

    Mama Rex lowered her great big head:
    “Thank you, Mateo!” was all she said.

  17. Page 17

    She gave him a gift: a tooth, old and strong,
    a magic keepsake, his whole life long.

  18. Page 18

    Mama said yes! So they ran to a waterfall,
    and beside it, a magic cave, so dark and tall!

  19. Page 19

    Mateo touched a footprint deep in the cave:
    blue as a star, what a glow it gave!

  20. Page 20

    A stegosaurus took Mateo for a ride,
    with Pipo waddling along by its side.

  21. Page 21

    SPLASH! In a crystal-clear lake, so bright,
    Mateo and Pipo splashed with all their might!

  22. Page 22

    They gathered golden ferns, a bouquet so grand,
    for Pipo's Mama, picked by hand!

  23. Page 23

    The sun dipped down in red and gold.
    Time to head home, as the day grew old.

  24. Page 24

    “Bye-bye, Pipo!” Mateo said with a grin.
    “Run home to Mama before night sets in!”

  25. Page 25

    The tooth lit up and began to shake,
    and a golden wind blew Mateo home, wide awake.

  26. Page 26

    Back in his room, safe and sound, he sat,
    the tooth in his hand — just imagine that!

  27. Page 27

    He set the tooth by the bed with great care:
    what an amazing day, beyond compare!

  28. Page 28

    Mateo fell asleep smiling. Far from here,
    Pipo slept in his nest, with Mama near.

A personalised dinosaur book with their face

In Dinosaur Valley your little one is the explorer: they venture into a prehistoric valley, meet giant dinosaurs and help Pipo, a lost baby T-Rex, find his Mama. It isn't a lookalike avatar or a generic drawing with their name added: every page is illustrated from their photo, with their face, their hair and their name in the text.

It's a gift made for dinosaur-mad children aged 2 to 8, and you can order it in English, Spanish or Catalan.

Here's how it works: upload a clear, front-facing photo and in about two minutes you'll see their character and the real cover, for free. Only if you love it do you order it, for €39.99: a 20×20 cm hardback with 33 illustrated pages, checked page by page by a real person and printed to order. Delivery anywhere in Spain costs €4.99 (free on book orders of €50 or more) and it usually arrives in 7 to 9 working days. The photo is deleted after 30 days and is never used to train AI.

What age is the dinosaur book for?

It's for children aged 2 to 8: the illustrations hook the youngest, and the baby T-Rex's adventure wins over the older ones too.

Is it really my child, or a doll that looks a bit like them?

It's really your child: the character is created from their photo, and before you pay you see their character and the cover for free, so you can check the likeness.

Which languages can I order it in?

In English, Spanish or Catalan: you choose the book's language when you create it.
