Product Information

Dinsaurs And All That Rubbish is a fantastic colourful and imaginative take on how to teach young children how important it is to look after the Earth. Not knowing it is Earth he sets off again in its direction in hope to finally find a world of natural beauty. Watch the whole story now from beginning to end, ready for some more work about this book next week.

Or perhaps it is a children's picture book in which dinosaurs rise up from beneath the earth to sweep up and dispose of all the rubbish that humanity has produced and the ruins of our industrial society. Then, since dinosaurs are apparently keen gardeners, they turn our plant into a lush paradise, that is somewhat implausibly suitable for both people and dinosaurs to enjoy in harmony, with neither people being eaten nor Sauropod eggs for breakfast in my memory there was an extensive series of pictures showing dinosaurs sweeping rubbish into volcanoes, ripping out motorways like so much old carpet, however upon re-inspection it proved that my imagination had substantially embellished the original in my memory. Man’s dream to reach the stars leaves the world in ruins and disturbs the sleeping dinosaurs. Will they wake up and save planet Earth? Purcell Room is located in Queen Elizabeth Hall. For step-free access please use Royal Festival Hall JCB glass lift to Level 2 and enter via Riverside Terrace. If you’ve got little ones and want them out of your hair for thirty minutes, Dinosaurs and All That Rubbish is a fabulous story of regrowing the Earth following human destruction.

The book begins with the lines: “A man stood on a hill and looked at a star. All he thought about, dreamed about, was the star.” It follows a businessman who will do anything to travel to space, even if he has to destroy his own planet to get there. When he finally reaches the faraway star – a barren planet with “no trees, no flowers, and not a blade of grass” – he starts to think that maybe Earth wasn’t that bad in the first place. Introduce a map of UK or show in an Atlas. Start with the UK then show the countries that make up the UK. Point out that Scotland and Wales are attached but Ireland is an island. Then ask where do we live? Find Bristol on the map together. Ask children if they know the capital of the UK and find London together. When he lands he is greated by a Dinosaur, at first the man thinks he has found a new planet but is soon corrected by the Dinosaur who is angry that the man destroyed the environment so carlessly.

Talk to a member of staff at the auditorium entrance if you have a disability that means you can’t queue, or you need extra time to take your seat. They can arrange priority entry for you as soon as the doors open. A Changing Places toilet is located on Level 1 Royal Festival Hall next to the JCB Glass Lift, for the exclusive use of disabled people who need personal assistance to use the toilet. Let Me Learn Discuss how you learned to make a jam sandwich. Was it listening to instructions, watching someone else, doing it yourself or a mix? Do they know how they like to learn? Imagine Children’s Festival is a Relaxed festival. All performances have a relaxed approach to noise and movement in the space, and you are free to enter and exit during the performances. A chill-out space and noise-cancelling headphones are available for both adults and children. The book’s strong underlying environmental message is portrayed sensitively about a greedy entrepreneur, who tries to destroy Earth and includes the charming detail of dinosaurs rising up to protect it against him.I've owned this book for nearly 30 years, but I don't like it that much really. It's one of those "we're destroying our world" books - and yes, I do think we still need them, and I hope people are still writing new ones for each new batch of children that come along, but this one just feels a little preachy.

We're cash-free Upon arriving, it is not the lush (grass is greener scenario) planet that he fantisised about; rather, it is barren and life less. He sees another distant star; his planet that he doesn't recognise as his own. The irony of his blindness is apparent as he sets off and sets to discover IT, still with his take all, share nothing attitude.
