Book #3 Tuck and Tina

Everyone’s favorite school mice are back for a prehistoric mystery! A hilarious, full-color chapter-book adventure packed with action, laughs, and dino-sized surprises—perfect for emerging readers.

In their third hilarious adventure, Tuck and Tina return just as the Boone School faces its biggest threat yet. Water fountains are erupting, crickets are swarming the classrooms, and the school board is ready to shut things down for good.

But the mice suspect something bigger: a masked troublemaker is after the dinosaur fossils buried beneath the school. From a kidnapped principal to a runaway bear to a high-flying model-airplane chase, this mystery is packed with twists, teamwork, and action.

  • We’re glad to see more awesome Tuck and Tina fun!

    We have the first two Tuck and Tina books and just got our copy of the 3rd, Tuck and Tina and the Dinosaur Thief! It’s full of giggles, surprises, and adorable save-the-day Tuck and Tina escapades. Booneville, where Tuck and Tina live, must be the most fun small town anywhere! The story is presented with amazing drawings and great humor, sure to keep your “little ones” guessing and laughing!

  • Tuck and Tina to the rescue (again)

    Tuck and Tina come through again as they get to the bottom of the dinosaur bones mystery. They are joined by an entertaining cast of characters including Melvin the bear and bad guy Hector Huckster. Tuck and Tina show readers the value of being willing to change strategy when confronted with obstacles. They persevere and don’t give up. Children and adults will appreciate the mystery and the humorous stuff. They’re both enhanced by the illustrations.
