Album Notes

In Little Proto's T-Rex Adventure, the sequel to The Adventures of Little Proto, Proto meets King Geoffrey the One Eye--the fiercest T-Rex ever to walk the Sea of Grass--and Bump, the orphaned Pachycephalosaurus who bumps into everything. Proto also learns how his friend Old Wrinkles lost his horn, and that long ago, a Triceratops king vanished from the Great Migration. Many think Old Wrinkles is the Vanished One Horned King, but he won't admit it.

Winner of the Indie Award, THE PARENTS' CHOICE GOLD AWARD and the STORYTELLING WORLD AWARD, Bodkin's Little Proto's T-Rex Adventure is an exciting journey of the mind for young listeners with "child manageable suspense" and jokes that will have parents in stitches along with their children. The story also addresses the issue of accepting new siblings, and how, in families, "you feel more love the more you give away."

The 73-minute audio features a continuous musical score on 12-string guitar and four songs kids love to sing. Odds Bodkin, who is one of the foremost storytellers in America, has been called "a storyteller supreme" by PARENTS MAGAZINE, a "modern-day Orpheus" by BILLBOARD, and "a consummate storyteller" by the NEW YORK TIMES. Odds creates all the character voices, vocal effects and muse-inspired music simultaneously, making Little Proto's T--Rex Adventure a rich treat for listeners' mind's eyes. Both children and adults love listening to his stories. Great for listening while travelling!

The Little Proto Trilogy are children's musicals unlike any other storytelling recordings. They combine adventure, humor, beauty and clever dialog along with compelling plot lines to raise children's literacy and imaginative intelligence.
