Imagination is one thing; what wonderful adventures you could have should you be able to travel to the distant past and walk amongst the dinosaurs. Reality is different; running around in bone shaking terror as various man-eating dinos crave your flesh. This has not stopped Dylan embarking on another amazing adventure – will he survive a velociraptor attack and why does he keep doing back?
Dylan is a curious child, both in terms of questioning things all the time, but also in his choices. With the aid of his magical journal he travels into the past to discover something about the dinosaurs. This time he wants to know how long a TriceratopTriceratops's horns are; rather than doing some empirical studies of fossils, he instead embarks on an adventure to the past and tries to measure the horns of a living specimen!
''Triceratops'' is the fourth outing for Dylan and his amazing dinosaurs by E T Harper and by this point there is a tried and tested formula. Once again the book starts with Dylan and his toy pterodactyl pondering on a question and then going back in time to try and solve it. The first few pages of this book are almost identical to that of [[Dylan's Amazing Dinosaurs - the Tyrannosaurus Rex by E T Harper and Dan Taylor|Dylan's Amazing Dinosaurs - the Tyrannosaurus Rex]], which feels a little like cheating. Once the new adventure starts, it also feels a little similar as Dylan once again finds himself in trouble when he lands in the Land of the Dinosaurs, but by four trips he should know the dangers by now?
