South Of The Border, (Hardcover)

South of the Border

Patches builds a wooden donkey that comes to life in a daydream. His imagination takes all of the Dino-Buddies on a magical visit south of the border. These adorable Dino-Stars learn about the Mexican culture and language, all while an endearing relationship unfolds between Patches and his newly found amigo, Nacho! The sweet and lovable dinosaurs also learn some Spanish words.

The DINO-BUDDIES are featured in a Children's Book Series, 3D Animation, Interactive eBook Apps, Plush, CDs, Apparel, Accessories and other associated products (Ages 2-7).

Onid Valley (that's "DINO" spelled backward) is the magical land where the adorable Dino-Buddies live and play.

"Friends of Distinction . . . Not Extinction," the Dino-Buddies are indeed Dino-Stars! The Dino-Buddies are of a non-violent nature and enjoy wholesome activities, but sometimes they have to watch out for their not-so-very-nice neighbors, the Dino-BuLLies!

Subtly sharing family values, safety tips and how to cope with bullying, the Dino-Buddies Book Series focuses on positive and wholesome activities, offering examples of good manners, safe habits, and above all, kindness (SEL - Social Emotional Learning).

Each book is creatively written by the Award-Winning sister/brother team of 'Aunt Eeebs ...and Sprout!' With 24 pages of colorful airbrushed artwork, each eBook is highlighted with a unique melodic, rhyming verse that children delight in hearing again and again. All are educational, entertaining and colorful.

The Dino-Buddies collection will captivate your child's imagination and attention for hours... especially with the memorable, 'fun-to-sing-along-with' musical Dino-Buddies songs.
