Eggasaurus by Wagh, Jennifer

In this funny and winsome epistolary picture book, a young boy who orders a dinosaur egg ends up with more than he--or his dad--bargained for!

All Maximus wants is a pet dinosaur--is that really too much to ask? But when his dad tells him he must send the egg back to where it came from, a mysterious company called Eggasaurus, Inc, a hiccup in communication leads to Max getting more...and more...and MORE eggs! Can he and his dad find a compromise before the eggs hatch and the baby dinosaurs take over their home?
