Synopsis

Jodie Bolton is not the happiest of girls. She hates her dark curly hair, she loathes her freckles, and she wants to look like a princess. One day she wakes up to find that those problems no longer exist. Instead she has to contend with purple andgreen blotches and scaly skin, because she has turned into a dinasour. This is a mixed blessing for Jodie, for while she is the centre of attention, PE lessons and school dinners get her into some hilarious scrapes. But it is not until she visits the doctor that things get really out of hand...
