Extrait

W hen Hector grew up, he was going to be an Archaeologist. He spent all his time digging, gathering, and collecting. He had a pile of books on the subject in his room, lots of posters, and a shelf full of plastic dinosaurs, each labeled with its name.

So, you can well imagine that

he recognized it as soon as he saw it!

It happened last Sunday at Grandpa’s. They had just sat down to eat on the patio under a beautiful sunny blue sky. As usual, his uncle had served up a weird kind of salad, then Grandpa would bring out his famous chicken, and Grandma would unveil her surprise pie for dessert… It was pretty much the same every Sunday… but a little different too. This might amuse the grown-ups, but Hector had more important things to do.
