Dinosaur Friends: A Present for the Volcano

This story was short and sweet. It’s a story of Spike and Conifer who are best friends. Spike sees an unhappy (erupting) volcano and wants to give it a present. The two friends build the volcano, a necklace of stones, which is made to look like a ring of stones around the base of the volcano. Eventually, the volcano fully erupts and the friends go running. When they stop to look back, they realize their necklace of stones is blocking any flowing lava.

Dinosaur Friends: Saving Conifer’s Eggs

This is another short and sweet story about Spike and Conifer. When the forest where they live catches fire, Spike comes to warn his friend, Conifer. Conifer isn’t sure what to do since she can’t carry all 3 eggs with only 2 hands, and she has to be very careful that they don’t break. When Conifer is worried about her next, Spike waits impatiently and ends up knocking down a tree with his long tail. The two friends use the tree to safely escape the forest fire by using it to float down the river.
