Two books in one with Spike and Conifer, two dinosaurs who have formed a friendship helping one another. The first book is about a volcano ready to erupt and how Spike and Conifer come up with a solution to temper the situation. The second book is about Conifer’s eggs that need saving and coming up with a solution that not only saves the eggs but helps Spike too. Both books are fun to read with great problem solving skills that are easy to engage the young readers into helping figure out what will happen next.

My son and I LOVE to read these books together! The stories are adorable. In these stories Conifer and her friend Spike work together to solve problems and learn the meaning of friendship! A Present for the Volcano finds Conifer and Spike trying to figure out how to make the volcano happy so it won’t erupt. Saving Conifer’s Eggs finds them working together to save themselves from a fire. The stories encourage communication and teamwork, which are good skills for children to learn. The illustrations are vibrant and inviting, really bringing the stories to life! I am so glad we discovered these stories! They will be in our regular reading rotation from now on!

This story was so fun and adventurous, my six year old simply adored it. There are two stories in this collection and both of them were full of bright and vibrant colors, a great story for children, and of course adventure. I originally picked these up because I thought they were cute, but lately my six year old has developed a love of dinosaurs so these were perfect for bedtime. So wether you just love dinosaurs or you need a new bedtime story for the kids make sure you pick up this wonderful collection today.

A Present for The Volcano speaks volumes about perspective and perceptions. Conifer was worried all day and just wanted to get out of the situation, but her friend did what they could to make the situation better. They prepared and took action, and while it was questionable how it would turn out, Conifer decided to trust her friend and help. And in the end, she was able to see from a different point of view. These stories are adorable. Mama Conifer T-Rex and her ankylosaurus friend work together when a problem comes up. Even when things look dark, they find a way. The artwork is amazing too. I love the textures and the colors. I definitely recommend both!

I love when I get a new book by this author to enjoy with my children as they always connect with the stories so well. These two books were no different. My daughter loves these books as they are easy for her to understand and follow along with. She really becomes invested in the stories and requests to read them multiple times.
These two books were the first time my son has also shown an interest. He loved the pictures of the Dinosaurs and kept pointing to them trying to ‘roar’. This author has created two stories that appeal to the younger audience so well, and spans across multiple age ranges with ease. These are fantastic books and even I can’t wait to read them again.

Dinosaur Friends are stories about two sweet friends named Spike and Conifer. In these stories, you will see how friends can help each other not be afraid, to problem solve, and to beat the outside elements that can be scary.

The characters are delightful and the illustrations are gorgeous. This is a book I will read to my great-niece – she will love them!

This 2 in 1 book is so cute. Both books are about 2 friends, Conifer and Spike. These 2 stories were both about how together friends can face difficult or scary things. I loved how in each book the one struggling was different, showing kids that sometimes we need to help our friends and sometimes we need to let them help us. My grandkids adore dinosaurs and I can’t wait to read this to them.

This is a fun two book series. They are adventurous stories full of colourful pages. In A Present for the Volcano, Spike wants to give an erupting volcano a present to make it happy. Although Conifer wasn’t sure it would help, she stuck by her friend and helped him. In Saving Conifer’s Eggs, the two put their heads together to save her eggs from the forest fire. Both books teach children that when you cooperate, you can accomplish a lot. Both stories have valuable lessons that young children should learn and honestly which child doesn’t love dinosaurs.

Man I wish my children were younger cause I would definitely have them read this book. This is s sweet little book that will help children learn about friendship and has loveable dinosaur characters. The author has a very unique idea and brings her characters to life. This is just the right length for a great bed time story or two. I really would recommend this book to anyone with very small children.

These two stories were so cute! I read them to my little boy and although he was probably a little young to understand everything he did sit and listen well. He enjoyed the colourful illustration that accompanied the stories. Again as in previous books by this author the science elements to the story are really great and would definitely intrigue older children scientific minds about Volcanos, what happens to them etc. I found them to be really easy reads that would definitely keep the attention of children probably in the 5-8 years bracket.

This is an adorable double dinosaur adventure! Having 2-books-in-1 is a wonderful idea. The graphics used for illustration give the pictures texture and make for a more interesting story. I read both stories several times to my grandkids and they were captivated by the dinosaurs adventure. A recommended read for your little ones!

This is a combination of two cute children’s stories in one book. The first story, A Present for the Volcano, has the two dinosaur friends work together to make a necklace for the volcano who is about to erupt. In the second story, Saving Conifer’s Eggs, the friends are united to work together to keep a forest fire from damaging Conifer’s eggs. I think both of these stories would be a good addition to a classroom library. There are social, emotional messages of cooperation and teamwork, creative thinking to problem solve, emotional regulation, and friendship in the book. Kids who enjoy dinosaur stories would also engage well with these books. The illustrations also add a vivid picture to the words.

I love that it’s a cute story but also has valuable lessons and important things to discuss with your kids after reading. Also we both really enjoyed the artwork. Overall a really great kids book!

I originally picked this book/books for my 7 year old daughter. She has a speech issue right now, so she is a little lower on the current reading level that she should be. Anyway, she did GREAT with these! And who doesn’t love Dinosaurs! I would recommend this book for any 5-8 year old, maybe younger if your reading it to your dyno loving child(ren). This book is great as an eBook, but I personally would recommend the other version because kids love to hold books and this one flips over and it’s another story! How fun is that, right?! On to the books…. The first book (A Present for the Volcano) is about two Dino friends and a Volcano. One dinosaur (Conifer) is afraid of the volcano and wants to run, while the other Dinosaur (Spike) thinks that the volcano is sad and needs a present. The two dynos give the volcano a necklace to make the volcano feel better. It takes all day, but their gift is complete. The volcano bursts and the dynos run. Read the book to find out the ending!! I don’t want to give anything away 😉 The next book ( Saving Conifer’s Eggs) is the flip side book, book 2. Conifer has a nest with three eggs that she is sitting on. Spike smells smoke and comes to warn her. They must run from the fire, but she can’t carry her three eggs with her two little hands. The friends face a few problems as they try to make it to safety with the three eggs. Will they make it safety? What happens with the eggs? Do they break along the way? Get burned? How do Conifer and Spike fair at the end?! Read this fun children’s books to find out more!! Both books are so fun! I really think kids will love not only the pictures, but the story too!

These books are cute for kids. My girls (3rd and 4th grade) read these and really like them. Conifer and Spike were faced with different issues (in one, they were trying to stop a volcano, and in the other, they were trying to escape a fire), and they found creative solutions to their problems (though to be honest, I’m not sure the solutions would work in the real world. These are creative stories targeted for young audiences and they are engaging and short/easy to read.

This is a cute 2 in 1 children’s story about two dinosaurs Spike and Conifer . These stories are about friendship and how sometimes friends may not agree on everything and how they work through their disagreements. My four year old son loves books and especially dinosaurs. We’ve read several times already and guaranteed to be read several more times in the future. My son was very eager to try and help the dinosaurs that he went and put on dinosaur saving clothes and was ready to go help. Can Spike and Conifer agree on what’s best? I highly recommend reading this cute children’s book that I truly enjoyed reading with my son. We look forward to reading more from this Author.

This 2 in 1 book was such a cute read. Lois Wickstrom never disappoints in the lesson being built into a story that is so easily understandable for little children. In the Volcano story, we see our buddies Spike and Conifer are worried about the volcano erupting. Conifer will never leave Spike so she asks him if the volcano might want a present. We see the buddies thinking that the volcano is going to erupt because it is mad (such cute personification). Together they built a necklace for the volcano around its base made of stone that took them all day. Once the last stone was in place the volcano erupted but lo and behold, the stone necklace they made at the base of the volcano held the lava back. Spike says: “See, we dint need to run. The necklace made the volcano happy.” I just love these two dinos!
The second book we see Spike and Conifer team up to save Conifer’s eggs from a forest fire. When Spike smelled smoke, he went to Conifer’s nest to let her know that they needed to get away. Conifer refused to leave her eggs and so she picked up her entire nest and carried it with them. The eggs were too loose in the nest, so she had to slow down and walk carefully. The friends knew that fire could not burn water, so they decided to take the nest with the eggs to the river. Spike felled a giant tree and pushed it to the river where the two friends used it as a raft and floated away from the fire.

Dinosaur Friends is two books in one. In Book One, A Present for the Volcano, Spike tries to make an erupting volcano happy when he thinks it is sad. Spike convinces his friend Conifer to help him build a necklace out of rocks at the base of the volcano. When the volcano erupts Spike and Conifer are thrilled when the necklace of rocks stops the lava flow.

In Book Two, Saving Conifer’s Eggs, Spike and Conifer smell smoke from a nearby wildfire. They know they must immediately leave the forest and get to safety. Conifer must save her eggs that she has been sitting on, but she has three eggs and only two hands so she does not know how she can save all three eggs. Spike tells her to pick up her nest and carry it which she does. Conifer walks slowly and knows that she must be very careful to not knock the eggs together or she will break them. Spike, on the other hand, is impatient and starts swinging his tail back and forth. In doing so, he knocks down a tree which he uses to push shrubs out of the way and make their way to the river. Once at the river Spike and Conifer use the log to ride down the river and get away from the fire.

These two books were such a cute read about friendship and working together. Along the way we also learn about dinosaurs who lay eggs, what happens when a volcano erupts, and the importance of teamwork. A great read for any child that loves dinosaurs. In fact, I think I will be purchasing another copy for my friend’s son who has a birthday coming up soon. I highly recommend!

Dinosaur Friends are two cute action-adventure stories. A Present for the Volcano is one book and turn it over and discover Saving Conifer’s Eggs. Two books in one. I had a book like that when I was little and I loved it.

These picture books are wonderfully illustrated and beautifully colourful. They are fun, charming and original. These imaginative tales delight children aged 4 to 8. I read them to my 5-year-old and 3-year-old grandsons and they fell in love with the characters and the pictures.

These dinosaurs are best friends, but sometimes they don’t always see eye to eye but they are always there for each other.

What child doesn’t love dinosaurs and fun tales?

Dinosaur Friends: 2 Books in 1: A Present for the Volcano and Saving Conifer’s Eggs by Lois Wickstrom is a cute, beautifully illustrated children’s story with dinosaurs, action, adventure, a little drama, and friendship- while also providing lessons in empathy, co-operation, patience, being helpful, and working through problems (just to name a few).
This book contains two stories- “A Present for the Volcano” and “Saving Conifer’s Eggs”. They are cute stories that follow Spike (an Ankylosaurus) and Conifer (a Tyrannosaurus), two dinosaur friends, on their adventures.
The bright and colourful illustrations brought the whole story to life.
Happy reading!

I read these two Dinosaur Friends books, A Present for the Volcano and Saving Conifer’s Eggs, to my 6 year old son. He loved the pictures and guessing what would come next. He liked Saving Conifer’s Eggs more. He insisted on googling “ginko trees” after reading, to see if they were real. Thank you for adding in unknown trees, to help my little guy learn! The pictures are really cute and colorful.
We also had a discussion on the names of the dinosaurs. He knew Spike was the anklyo due to having spikes but wanted to know where Conifer came from. Then was mad because a carnivore shouldn’t be named after a plant- so there’s some 6 year old feedback lol
A Present for the Volcano was really cute. My son was sure the Lava would overflow, but was happy the friends were safe and were able to work together.
