  Kenta Suzuki of Yamanashi had a special
  dream. His favorite books to read from
  the library were always those about
  dinosaurs, but he wanted to learn a lot
  more about them. As he was thinking
  about this, a beautiful white unicorn
  appeared at his bedroom window. 

  When Kenta and the unicorn arrived at
  the shore of the beautiful lake, an
  apatosaurus (uh-pat-o-SORE-us)
  greeted them. He was longer than a big
  school bus. "What is your name?" asked
  Kenta. "I don't have one," answered the
  plant-eating dinosaur sadly. "No one
  has ever named any of us." Kenta
  thought for a while and then said, "I
  will call you Stretch." 

  While exploring, they met a stegosaurus
  (steg-uh-SORE-us). "He sure does have
  a lot of sharp points on his back,"
  whispered Kenta. "Those are called
  plates," said the unicorn. "A
  stegosaurus uses them for protection.
  They also trap heat from the sun to
  help keep them warm." Kenta told the
  stegosaurus, "A great name for you
  would be Spike." 

   Not far away, they met an allosaurus
   (al-us-SORE-us). She had large teeth
   and stood on powerful, hind legs. A
   huge tail helped her to stand up. "So
   you are the one who is making all that
   noise," said Kenta. "I shall name you
   Alli." Alli said, "Thank you," as she
   handed Kenta a branch of flowers. 

   As they were talking, a tiny
   compsognathus (komp-sog-NAY-thus),
   about the size of a cat, raced past
   them and said, "You must follow me.
   There is something you will want to
   see." Kenta and Ariel chased after him.
   "Wow! He is as fast as lightning.
   That's a great name for him," shouted
   Kenta as he ran. 

  "I am!" echoed a voice, circling above
  them. Just then a large pterodactyl
  glided past them. Kenta found it hard
  to believe that a lizard could fly.
  Its wing span was about as long as his
  arm. Kenta decided that Dack would be
  a fine name for a flying lizard. The
  father pterodactyl glided down to the
  nest. Ariel was quietly talking to
  Dack, but Kenta could not hear what
  they were saying. 

    As they landed, a pentaceratops
    (pen-tuh-SARE-uh-tops) rushed to
    greet them. Kenta quickly counted the
    five horns on his head and decided to
    call him Penti. Then he asked if he
    could help them decorate. "I want you
    to come with me, but for a different
    reason," replied Penti. "We have a
    surprise for you!" 

   After the party, Alli, the allosaurus,
   told Kenta that it was time to leave for
   Yamanashi. Kenta was a bit sad, but
   could hardly wait to tell Taro,
   Hideki and Masaki about his exciting
   adventures. Before he left, they all
   thanked Kenta for the nice names he
   had given them.
