#1 – Dinosaur Hideout
How can the remains of long-dead dinosaurs help save a modern family farm?
For Daniel, things can’t get a lot worse. First of all, he’s an amateur paleontologist but his dad’s always on his case about it. They live on a busy farm, and Daniel’s interest in dinosaurs is getting in the way of his chores. Second, while visiting his secret hideout, he has a run-in with Pederson, a secretive and unpleasant neighbour, that leaves him shaken and scared. And, above all, the family’s in grave danger of losing the farm – a farm that’s been theirs for generations.
Then, Daniel discovers several artifacts that lead him to suspect something hugely important is waiting to be discovered. This is so big it could change the way people look at dinosaurs. And, it could make the land so valuable that his family wouldn’t have to move to the city.
Proving it is going to be the trick. There’s not a lot of time; the bank’s tired of waiting. As Daniel tries to map out a plan of action, he finds himself drawn to the gruff Pederson. Just what is he doing on that piece of land of his? Why does he seem so mean? Is he the key that can help Daniel save the day?
#2 – Dinosaur Breakout
In Dinosaur Hideout, Daniel and Pederson, a reclusive paleontologist living on a neighbouring farm in southwestern Saskatchewan, made a brilliant discovery–the fossil remains of a dinosaur called an Edmontosaurus. Now, local bullies Todd and Craig Nelwin, jealous of all the attention Daniel gets, want to find his hideout and wreck it. When the three scuffle and Daniel hits his head on the rocks, he is whisked out of his own time and into the world of the dinosaurs – Triceratops, Brontosaurus, Tyrannosaurus Rex; a world of giant redwoods, huge ferns, and dragonflies nearly a metre wide. When another equally strange shock brings him back to his own time, Daniel at first doesn’t realize that he carries a small piece of the past–a bit of redwood bark. Whenever he touches it, he will return to the dinosaurs’ world. Daniel makes two more unplanned but thrilling trips to the past. He sees the most marvellous, and horrifying, sights and makes new discoveries about dinosaurs. On a final trip, Daniel has two unwilling "hitchhikers" with him–the Nelwins. Daniel isn’t the only one who learns from their sudden shared adventure.
#3 – Dinosaur Stakeout
Following the adventures of Dinosaur Hideout and Dinosaur Breakout, twelve-year-old Daniel Bringham once again travels back to the time of dinosaurs to learn more about the prehistoric creatures he loves. This time he has an unexpected companion. Daniel decides to travel to the past one more time. He wants to find out if a dying female dinosaur he saw on his last trip is Roxanne, the fossil he and Pederson found in Dinosaur Hideout. Daniel figures he’ll be going alone, but he’s figured without Pederson and his friend Mildred Roost, another paleontologist.
Mildred insists on coming with him. Daniel thinks it’ll wreck everything -an old lady will just slow him down, and if she gets killed, he’ll blame himself. But he’s reckoned without a tough old bird with lots of tricks up her sleeve, tricks that could save both their lives.
#4 – Dinosaur Blackout
Daniel has traveled to prehistoric times and seen the dinosaurs up close, but he’s promised his old friend Ole Pederson not to try it again because it’s just too dangerous. What would they tell his parents if Daniel never came back? But Ole’s friend Mildred Roost, a prominent paleontologist, wants to go back with Ole. For them the trip will be the thrill of a lifetime, seeing up close the colossal creatures they’ve spent a lifetime studying. They could die on their journey deep into the past, but, deep down, Daniel knows that they accept the risks.
Who could have guessed they’d end up in the time of the dinosaurs’ final extinction? That they’d see sights more amazing and terrible than they could ever have imagined?
When they don’t come back on time, Daniel faces a dilemma. Should he keep his promise or should he go back and try to help them?
