Story Snack: The Great Dino-Sneeze

Author: The Reading Bug March 19, 2026 Duration: 20:42
Book Worm’s Story Snacks | The Great Dino-Sneeze Can a single sneeze save an entire herd of dinosaurs from a T-Rex? Join the Book Worm in this prehistoric story snack and gear up with tropical vests and explorer boots to travel 75 million years back to the humid jungles of the Cretaceous period. What starts as a leafy lunch quickly turns into a “sticky” emergency when a massive, duck-billed Parasaurolophus named Barnaby gets his musical head-crest plugged with thick tree sap—leaving him unable to call his herd to safety before the sun goes down and the predators arrive. Join the high-speed dragonfly Dash, scale Barnaby’s 30-foot leathery neck, and help the Reader perform a high-energy Mega-Tickle to trigger a record-breaking blast of air. Together, you’ll discover how extra Oxygen made prehistoric bugs super-sized, the science of Resonance in musical crests, and how a little bit of silly teamwork can protect a whole dinosaur family—all through courage, logic, and a giant ACHOO!
