Questacon > Kids > Dinosaurs Alive! > The Dinosaurs Are Back! > Endings

Thank you to everyone who has sent us their ending to this story:

Shiman, age 2, Australia

She turned the dinosuar into a carnivore. Then the dinosaur ate her up. THE END!!!!!!!!!

Mitchell, age 12, Australia

Went to questacon to learn what plants they eat she found out and through genetical enginering gave the dinosauar the plants he needed to live and they lived happaly ever after until Jill had to house train the dinosaur.

Sarah, age 6, USA

She called a moving van and took it in to a greenhouse. The people who owned it let him eat some.

Georgia, age 9, Australia

Jill thought for a second and then she remembered the old reserve that nobody went to anymore. It had HEAPS of plants and trees,the Styracosaurus could not only have heaps of food but a new home as well! THE END

Rebekah, age 14, Australia

OFCOURSE! She hopped on Styracosaurus’ back and rode him around the city, to where she wanted to go. Finally they arrived at the CITY PARK. Styracosaurus was so happy. He walked up to the trees and started munching on the beautiful green leaves until he was full. Now, as long as Styracosaurus wanted to stay in my town, he knew where to go for food.

Connor, age 8, Australia

Take the Styracosaurus to some grass.

Jessica, age 11, Australia

She went to the town park and the dinosaur ate all the plants!

Kerby, age 13, Philippines

In the garden.

Ethan, age 9, USA

Jill walked into the forest. After 3 minutes she looked back... Jill saw that styracosaurus was being devoured by a Tyrannosaurus!

Harry, age 3, Australia

The plants are everywhere even in my loungeroom!

Tessa, age 5, USA

In a vegatable patch where lots of yummy plants grow, then the dinosaur licked his lips.

Jordan, age 6, Australia

They started to walk to the forest they came upon a Tyrannosaurs Rex

Chris, age 12, Australia

She could find it at the grocery shop and they lived happily ever after.

Hareesha, India

They could call a truck and ask him to take the dinosaur to the nearest park during which time they could arrange for a ship to take it to the Amazon rainforest. Then they could ask everyone to put some money in for paying for the truck and ship cost.

Micah, age 10, Australia

She walked over to a flower shop but it was close. Then they went over to a place where they saw a raptor the raptor attacked the sytracosaurus but somehow the sytracosaurus beat it then thet found some plants. The end.

Samson, age 10, Australia

And then she magically made some plants appear and the dino was happy. Then everyone came out of their hiding spots and everyone was happy. The end!

Natalie, age 10, Australia

Jill went off to find some plants. The next day she came back with great news, she had found a huge mountain full of grass and all sorts of plants. So all the herbivores moved there, and guess what, the grass never stopped growing!!

Hareesha, age 10, India

We all thought about it for a while. I knew that everyone was scared at the very sight of the dinosaur even they knew that it was harmless. We were in the centre of the city. Where could we find plants? That too for a dinosaur that probably ate 10 tons of plants a day! Or something like that. My mind began to wander. I thought of how hungry I was. Oh boy! How much ime will it take us to figure out how to feed this dinosaur? Time? Time?! Time! Time that's it! The dinosaur must have travelled through time to get to our city! How did he do that? I wondered. In the end I decided to ask Jill. I went up to her. “Hey Jill! can you ask the Styracosaurus how he got here?”

“What on earth for???” exclaimed Jill but she did it anyway. I have to make it a point to ask my stepmother (Jill) how she talks to dinosaurs. “He says that he was just about to start his meal when a man in a white coat came up to him and then all he remembered was a blinding flash of white light.”

I didn’t answer. I knew very well who “the man in the white coat” was. He was doctor Dino-terror and his ambition was to take control of the dinosaur world. I heard him say, while I was spying on him, that his latest idea was a time-travelling machine. Looks like his invention was sucessful...

Seb, age 6, Australia

She will find the plant back in the dinosaurs time.

Caroline & Molly, age7, USA

She can go to Florda and get palm trees. Another choice is to go to Hawaii and get some more palm trees.

Tony & Kevin, age 7, USA

Since I know he loves palm trees. I will go to the National Botanic Garden in DC because there are experts on plants there. I will take him to North Carolina by train. Then he can live there.

Dominic & Kevin, age 8, USA

I know he loves to eat palm trees. We went to get a tractor trailor to get him to national botanic gardens experts. Then we feed him some palm tree leaves. When he was full we took a cargo ship to bring him to Hawaii.

Elizabeth & Maggie, age 8, USA

I will go to the Green house while mom stays with the dinosaur. Then we will get a ticket for the train and go to Florida. There are lots of palm trees there for him to eat.

John, RT & Kelly, ages 8, 7, & 8, USA

First we took him on a cargo ship to Hawaii because it was too heavy for a plane. Then we said goodbye and he lived in Hawaii.

Nathaniel, age 8, USA

Jill can go to the National Botanic Gardens to get some palm tree leaves. Then Jill will put the dinosaur onto a cargo ship and take him to Hawaii to get plenty of palm trees.

James & Reese, age 7, USA

Jill took him to the cargo ship travel to the Virginia Beach.So he could eat palm trees and be happy.

Fio & Daniel, age 7, USA

She took the dinosaur to green house because there are experts on plants and lots of plants to eat.

Renee & Gabrielle, ages 7 & 8, USA

I know he likes palm trees, so first Jill went to a green house to get some palm leaves, for the the dinosaur. Then she wanted to take the styracosaurus to Florida. So it could eat something everyday. She took it on a train. They finally got there and the dinosaur was happy. The End

Jack & Matthew, ages 8, USA

Jill can call green house because it has a lot of palm trees. The styracosaurus can not fit in her car because it is 18 feet long,but she can put it in a train car. She will take it to Virginia Beach because it is the closest place that has lots of palm trees. He and Jill live happily ever after.

Connor & Godon, ages 8 & 7, USA

I think that we could send him on a train shuttle to South Carolina because there are alot of palm trees there. He will stay in a huge park and he can eat a lot of leaves

Ryan, Nathan & Michael, age 8, USA

We know that Styracosaurus likes to eat palm trees. We call the National Botanic Gardens because they have plants and ask them for palm leaves. We ask for train tickets to the Virginia Beach because there are palm trees there. After he has lunch we take a ship to Hawaii because there are much more palm trees there. He liked it so much he decided to live there.

Morgan & Clare, ages 7 & 8, USA

I know he loves palm trees. But Jill had to go to a greenhouse to buy palm leaves. Jill had to put the dinosaur on a cargo ship to Hawaii where there are more palm trees. And he had a better life there. She visited him every year for vacation

Abby & Caroline, age 8, USA

We know he likes palm trees so we called a green house and asked for some palm trees. Once the palm trees were deliverd the dinousaur started to eat them. When he was fineshed he wanted more so we took him on a Cargo ship to Hawaii to get more palm trees. The dinosaur liked it very much there so we let him stay there and he lived happily ever after in Hawaii.

Jake, age 3, Canada

Jill took the dinosaur to the forest where there was some grass and trees. He had a chose to live there because there was lots of food for him. He could meet new friends there like a wolves and deers.

Pippa, age 7

Lets go to the park and you can have some lunch.

Luke, age 6, Australia

Jill finds plants in Vaucluse house garden! She rides the dinosaur to Vaucluse House where there are many plants including lemon balm and grass. The dinosaur feels good!

Preetha, age 8, Australia

Maybe she could go with the dinosaur and search for plants? That would work. She set out the next day and soon enough there was a whole hump of plants right in front of their eyes. The dinosaur happily munched on the plants and he and Jill lived happily ever after.

Lily, Australia

She found lots in the woods and lots of plants. The end.

Luca, age 7, Australia

It was like this, Jill and Styracosaurus went for a walk to the Botanical Gardens. Styracosaurus ate 10 fern plants, and a patch of daffodils, and drank a whole duck pond. Styracosaurus was happy. But then the rangers spotted him. Jill climbed on Styracosaurus's back and they ran down to the Art Gallery of NSW, zoomed twice around the Sydney Opera House and swam to Fort Denison. The horses stayed at the Opera House and the rangers swam out to tie Jill and Styracosaurus up. Jill cried, “Stop! Stop! Don't hurt Styracosuarus! He can help us! He can pull carts, eat the weeds and mow the grass!” The ranger thought that that was a good idea. So they helped Styracosaurus live at the Botanical Gardens where he ate all the weeds and only the really high ferns, drank from the overflowing duck ponds, and gave people rides on his back for fun. The people were not scared of Styracosaurus any more, untill the foot prints of Tyranosaurus Rex appeared. But that's another story....

Lakeyliah, age 7, USA

She went back in time.

Paris, age 6, Australia

On a hill and on the ground.

Nathan, age 5, Australia

In the bush.

Stephanie, age 10, Australia

as they had thought for a while Jill said I know we can go to a park, the styracosaurus thougt yes. When they arrived the styracosaurus ran to some plants but as he ate a leaf a big long neck came, the styracosaurus got so excited that he said hello in dinosaur language but they saw the long neck was upset so styracosaurus invited the long neck to come with Jill and him.

Cassandra, age 11, Australia

At the park or a garden.

Ashleigh, age 10, Australia

She found a large truck, went out of town with stegasourise and went to a plant store asked for 500 plants and gave them a $100 in return.

Michael, age 6, Australia

jill remembered that she had a wonderful vegetable garden and so she took the styracosaurus there and there he ate and ate the veges and flowers!!!

Mercy, age 11, Australia

After that she saw a forest that was full of green plants and went to them. And at last none of the people saw her again.

Stephanie, age 8, Australia

They went out to a far away place and the styracosaurus found some food so the styracosaurus ran over to eat all of the trees, flowers, and all sorts of plants but then the styracosaurus was going to fast at eating and it ate something that styracosaurus can't eat so its gotten sick and its got to go to the vet. The vet fixed it so the dinosaur got to live in the jungle again. It got checked every day so it would not get sick and it did not get sick ever again. The end.

Talia, age 11, Australia

She could find them at the park or if it didn't like them she could build a time machine to take it back in time

Caitlin, age 9, New Zealand

Jill took the dinosaur to a big rugby field and asked all her friends and neighbours to tell everybody they knew to bring their lawn clippings, garden weeds and flower trimmings to the field for the dinosaur to eat.

Ashley, age 9, Australia

So they went to find some plants for the Styracosaurus to eat...they found lots of plants to eat...after they came back to the town and also found a place for it to live. And they lived happily ever after. The End

Cary, age 9¾, Australia

She looked around, but she couldn't find any type of transport. The dinosaur became unpatient again. Jill tried talking to the beast again and finally got it to calm down a bit more. She told the dinosaur to stay there while she goes to a friut shop in the supamarket. The dinosaur understood most of it and obeyed Jill.

Jill came back with a bag full of friuts and vegies. The beast came forewards munching on the plants. In five seconds, there was nothing left.

Jill decided that she would ride the dinosaur to the nearest forest- but it was a long way. Finally, they arrived and the beast jogged towards the trees and pulled, crunch, and munch up all the leaves, etc. Every now and then Jillwould come and visit, in fact, she had spread the word to everone,and she needed to build a fence to keep people from damaging the environment and scaring the dinosaur away. Nobody yes nobody was allowed to take photos, it was so strict, that anyone who even brought a camera, was to be sent to a detention home and stay there for two weeks.

After all that fuss, the beast died, it had the most biggest funeral ever- how do I know, well cause Jill was my mum, she told me everything, and I even get to ride the dinosaur- it was a lifetime experience.

Lara (and her Mum), age 4, Australia

She knew that Floriade was on in Canberra and thought that Styracosaurus would love eating all of those beautifully coloured flowers, so she and Styra went there at midnight. Styra ate and ate and ate until he couldn't eat any more. Then he had a stomach ache! Jill told him the story about the very hungry caterpillar who ate too much but then ate one nice green leaf and soon felt much better.

Jill and Styra wandered up the road to Parliament House so Styra could eat some of the nice green grass that covers the roof of the building. Styra recovered well, said hello to the Prime Minister and disappeared into one of the surrounding government departments where he was sure he would find a few other dinosaurs!

Ezra, age 4, Australia

In the bush

Gillian, age 9, Australia

She took the dinosaur to a place with lots of plants she left him there and went to see him every day

Jordan, age 9, New Zealand

Aha! Mr Bean's farm. He had a lot of plants. When Jill got back she found the dinosaur dead. Uh-oh I guess she wasn't quick enough.

Sam, age 7, Australia

He found some plants at the North Pole but they were frozen so she went back home to get her hairdryer. Then she went back and melted the ice so the dinosaur could eat the plants. Unfortunately he spat out the core hit her in the head and he ran off.

Brenton, age 12, Australia

They set of into the forest and found some gigantic green lush plants. But as styracosaurus went to eat the lush plants a terrible roar from a T-rex. The T-rex put up a fight. It was not enough, styracosaurus easly beat the terrible T-rex. The T-rex gave up and after the fight they sat in the forrest eating the lush plants.

Jesse, age 11, Australia

They went to find a tropical place for the herbivor to live and eat so they went to madagaskar and jill took care of the terrific dinosaur and lived happily ever after.

Preetha. age 8, Australia

She thought and thought and soon an idea came to her mind. We could go to the park and see if there was some plants there. She talked Styracosaurus into going to the park. She went to the park and suprisingly there were lots of plants! Styracosaurus ate and was soon full. She thanked Jill by nuzzling her hand and then Styracosaurus was gone.

Max & Alexandra, ages 5 & 3, USA

She had to take them back to Dinosaur World!

They all got in a rocket and blasted off. All the dinosaurs fit into the big belly of the rocket but they were still hungry and big. They when gently down because that's what rockets do. They got out and were wearing spacesuits which were tight, but the dinosaurs could breath. They all had something to eat and felt better. The End.

Rachael, age 9, Australia

Jill went to the plant shop to try to buy some food. When she came back, she found the dinosour searching her house for food. Jill went up to it and said, “I have some food for you”. The dinosaur ran ran up to her and ate and ate until there was not one crumb. Then the dinosaur started eating the house.

Jill asked the dinosaur what its name was so her house wouldn't be eaten too fast. The dinosaur replied, “My name is Jack”.

So Jack and Jill went up the hill to get some water. They looked inside the well and fell down through the portal into dinosaur world. Then Jill asked the wise dinosaur if there was a human portal to get back. He said, “There is one in the meanest dinosaur’s cave.” Jill began to sing to soothe the dinosaur’s temper. The dinosaur said, “What do you want?” “I want to go through the portal in your cave”. The dinosaur said, “Sure, if only you will sing some more of that song.”

So Jill sang some more and she then got back into the human world. Jack and Jill will meet again but not this time. The End

Kirsten, age 9, Australia

Jill goes around the bush to find some food when she comes across a tree with fruit on it. She brings the fruit and leaves back and feeds them to the dinosaur. The End.

Daniella, age 8 (going on 9!), Australia

She could find plants in jungles, bushes, trees and even in the deep woods.

Kaitlin, age 8, Australia

Suddenly, from the sky fell lots and lots of dinosaur food. So for a month he ate that then his vacation was over and he went back to dinosaur-land.

Elizabeth, age 9, Australia

One day Jill bought lots of food for the dinosaurs it cost $1000 and when she got home all the dinosaurs WERE GONE. She checked the streets and she found they were in the park playing around.

Daniella, age 8, Australia

Jill went to look for plants but she didn't know where to look. She looked in the jungle, trees, bushes and the deep woods in the bush she found a necklace. She opened the heart and food poured every where around the dinosaur. He started to eat all of the food by the time jill turned around it was all gone. The dinosaur said in his dino voice “I want more food I am starving.” “No not yet we might run out of food.”

Adreiannah, age 8, USA

Jill went over to a tree and pulled down some leaves and the styacosaurus ate the leaves.

Shayan, age 7, Australia

The dinosaur got mad at Jill so Jill killed the dinosaur. The dinosaur turned into a ghost and by magic, he turned everything into plants and ate them. The End

Amie, age 10, Australia

The dinosaur ate Jill and she lived happily eva after in its belly.

Benjamin, age 4, Canada

She could take him to the nearest forest,and he could have a lot to eat, or he could come to my house and eat my mommies garden.

Zaylie, age 8, Australia

In the rainforest at England.

Ellenor, age 9, Australia

Jill Led the dinosaur out of the city and to the beach where thare was a mass of tropical plantation. he lived there for years eating it waiting forit to grow back. In the end he got tired of the tropical plants and got a job mowing peoples lawn.

Jane, age 4, Australia

Jill went home and got some plants from her garden. She gave them to the dinosaur. The dinosaur ate them all up and felt happy.

Rachel, age 8, Australia

Jill picked up a leash which suddenly appeared and tied it onto the great big dinosaur. She thought until her brain exploded. She put it back together with some glue, sticky tape and coloured pencils. Then she took the Styracosaurus to the zoo but the zoo-keeper said, "No room! No room!" So she moved to the park. Someone was cutting down trees at the park, there was someone being executed at the National Park, and someone at Jill's work farted and it stunk the place out. There was only one place left: Jill's backyard. It was a bit squishy at first, but then Jill planted some trees and they automatically grew and grew and grew. They married each other and lived happily ever after. THE END.

Matthew, age 11, Australia

She walked down the steet to the grocery where she bought $600 worth of spinach. The dinosaur and everyone was happy because now there was no spinach. THE END

Justin, age 7, Australia

Jill went to find some plants in the City. Jill found some and gave it to the Styracosaurus. The Styracosaurus was happy and something happened. There was a really bright light which the Styracosaurus was sent back to it's time. Jill was sad she might not get to see the Styracosaurus agian. Jill was still happy that the Styracosaurus was back at it's own time. The End

Adam, age 11, Australia

Then she remembered that she lived in New York City.......CENTRAL PARK. She rode the Styracosaurus to Central park. When they got there they found the juiciest, greenest tree leaves they could find.That tree was easy to find and another surprise came with it... HUNDREDS OF STYRACOSAURUS. The one Jill was riding must of been a baby because the others were much bigger. They all looked happy to see him. Now from this day onward Central Park in New York City is a reserve for all Styracosaurus

Adam, age 5, USA

She told it to try in the jungle! There are plenty of plants there. The dinosaur swam there to eat up all of the plants in the jungle. But they didn't want it to eat up ALL the plants in the jungle, or else the gorillas and other animals would get mad. So they made the letter X where the Styracosaurus could eat, and they made a letter O where the other animals could eat. Then all of the animals had plenty of food and none of them were angry.

Andrew, age 12, Australia

So they went to the forest and then she shot the dino and the city was safe!!! But the a t-rex came and ate Jill!

Kirstyn, age 9, Australia

Jill lead the dinosaur to the park and the dinosaur gave a grateful cry and ran off.

Bree, age 11, Australia

So she went of to the woods to find some food but all the trees were cut down you could see a long distance away. She went over the hill and could see more dinosause in need.

Kyla, age 9, North America

Then suddenly she knew. she could go to a rain forest. As soon as she got there she released the styracosayrus. The dinosaur was so happy.

Issac, age 10, North America

Isaac brought a T-rex to eat styracosaurus.

Claire, age 7, Australia

In the plant store.

Maddison, age 7, Australia

She went to a plant place and they had heaps of plants there, except they didn't have the right plants. Then they found the right plant in the city.

Sophie. age 6, Australia

Jill could find some food in the park.

Gabby, age10, Australia

Jill decided to go to the beach first but all she could find was seaweed so she gave it a try but the Styracosaurus just spat it out. Then Jill went to the park and found some gum leaves and Jill soon discovered the Styracosaurus loved gum leaves so thats what she started to feed him. The end.

Marley, age 6, Australia

She found a rainforest. In the rainforest there were plants for the dinosaur. She picked some and fed them to the dinosaur. She got leaves off a rose bush for the dinosaur. She got leaves that smelled of peppermint. She got got all different rose leaves.

Daniel, age 5, England

A thought came to her. She should take it to the park because there was grass there. She decided to leave it until it was dark outside so none would be scared.

Ella, age 12, Australia

Then Jill had an idea "maybe I should take you to the dinosour exabishion at Questacon so you can meet some other dinosours as well as rome around in the garden feasting on trees and bushes". So they did and the dinosour didn't mind beind the only REAL dinosour around because it was better then being alone by himself hungry!

Mikayla, age 9, Australia

In her garden.

Roy, age 6, USA

She found some ferns for the Styracosaurus and Styracosaurus ate them all up! The End.

All Saints Pre-primary, Australia

Together jill and her new friend went to the park in the city.

They found lots and lots of gum trees and flowers and leafy shrubs. Syracosaurus ate and ate until his tummy was very full. Then he had a long nap.

Bailey, age 9, USA

Jill leads the dinosaur to the forest.

Trent, age 7, Australia

She went to the rainforest where there were heaps of yummy plants. Styracosaurus was very happy with Jill and Jill took styracosaurus back to her house where she looked after him.

Cara, age 13, Australia

A boy called Bill went up to jill and asked what the matter was with the dinosaur. When he heard the full story he said "My dad is the owner of the fruit and vegetable shop maybe he will like that." The Dinosaur said that he will give it a go. So he did and he loved them esspecially the carrots. From that day forward when people came in if they pay $2 they got to feed it some food.

Emmy, age 9, Australia

And then all of a sudden plants came out of the Earth and the Styracosaurus was so happy and never went hungry again.

Nyree, age 12, Australia

After a while she came up with an idea...close by there was a national park! Maybe the park will provide what the styracosaurus needs.

But the park was closed now so she would have to wait till the next morning. She calmed the styracasaurus which she named Stompy and walked him to her house. Jill's house was only a couple of streets down the road so it was quite close. She showed Stompy to the backyard which he easily walked over. She whispered to him to stay there until morning which Stompy quietly curled up and layed his head on the newly cut grass. Jill ambled inside through the back door and collected her pillow and quilt from her bed and slept on the couch close to the back door so she could keep an eye on Stompy.

Next morning Jill woke up to Stompy noisily chomping on a pile of bark in the back. She pulled the blanket off and slowly edged towards Stompy as so not to surprise him. The pile of bark was supposed to cover the top of her apple tree that she kept. Stompy was hungrily gobbling up the bark but was stopped by Jill. "No more bark Stompy". She barked at him "I need some bark for my apple tree. You can't eat all of it". Stompy moaned. "Don't worry, today we are going to the national park and ask if you can fill your stomach" she laughed rubbing his stomach.

Since Jill had not changed the night before she had no need of changing. She led Stompy out and walked him down the street to the national park. While they were walking they heard children shouting that their toys had come to life and were pushed back by their mothers when they tried to run up and touch the dinosaur that they thought had come to life from their plastic toys.

When they reached the park, everyone made way before they got trampled on by the beast strolling through the park. They reached the front office at which Jill asked, "hello. nice morning isnt it?" the park rangers just stared at Stompy with their jaws open. "d-d-d-d-d" stuttered one of the rangers looking like he would faint any moment. "yes nice morning" answered the head ranger after realising he was supposed to answer. "Can we help you ma'am?" he asked politely. "Actually yes. I have a question I need answered and it might take some time to decide but I would like to ask if the dinosaur here could fill up his stomach?" she asked trying her best to get a yes from them. "I beg your pardon? this park will not satisfy a dinosaur and it is too small."

"But this park looks big enough"

"Yes, big enough to fill a baby dinosaur not an adult dinosaur! He would eat every leaf on every tree and still not be ready to lay down and sleep all winter."

"Oh" was all Jill could say. Her idea had not worked out as she had expected, "do you by chance know anywhere that would satisfy Stompy?"

"Stompy?" asked the ranger surprised.

"yes Stompy. thats what I named him"

"Oh yes well I know that there is a huge area of forest that the government is going to demolish to build buildings but I do not know anything else."

"Oh thank you soo much" she cried and rushed off to the area's council with stompy on her heels.

As she reached the council she cried out to the woman at the office to help her. The woman helped her immensly and gave Jill directions to the area which they were about to demolish in two days which she thanked her for and ran to her home and jumped in her car and drove down the road to the demolishing area and told Stompy to follow her. She went right, then right again at the lights and then she went left at the roundabout and drove for 10 minutes down a curved road to see a crane in the distance.

She pushed on the accelerator as she got closer. As she drove in to the area she hit the brakes and came to a stop and quickly got out of her car and ran over to a chubby man drawing down a map of the surrounding areas.

"Please-i-need-a-favour" she puffed.

"Yes madam?" said the chubby man.

"Can i have this dinosaur nibble on the area you are now about to clear?

He is very hungry and needs nourishment and if he eats most of the vegetation here it will save you the time tou clear it."

The man thought about it for a minute and then he turned around and scribbled something ona piece of paper and turned around "Sure!" he smiled and pulled his mobile out and talked to someone on the line "guess what Bill?" he said through the phone "we dont need a week to clear the trees.

"A lady's 'ere with, you wont beleive this but a dinosaur and the dino's gonna eat half the trees and we'll gain time." He said so cheerfully he was practically shouting.

Meanwhile, Stompy ran as fast as his little legs could run to the green plants and started munching on the leaves and branches. Jill nearly fell down laughing as stompy ran towards the greenery.

Gemma, age 9, Australia

So she took it to the park where there were heaps of plants to chew on. The End

Joshua, age 10, USA

They went to Jills house. The lawn was full of grass. The dinosaur was happy. He had plants to eat.

Courtney, age 10, Australia

So Jill went looking all over town to find plants. As she walked along, she found a plant store that sold plants for a cheap price.

Jill walked in and found that there were millions of plants, so she jogged over to a worker and explained about Styracosaurus and that it needed some food. So the worker suggested that buying bulk buys for Styracosaurus because it will save Jill money and she would get more plants.

As Jill walked back to Styracosaurus, she thought that she should send him to a Endangered Species Wildlife Park. When Jill finally got to Styracosaurus she fed him his plants. Later on Jill called The E.S.W.P and they said that they were fine with having Styracosaurus. The next day The E.S.W.P picked up Styracosaurus and took him to the park.

Jill was sad as she loved Styracosaurus. She then went inside to have brekky. THE END!!

Natalie, age 3, Australia

Jill tock the styracosaurus to a garden not just a garden the bigest in the world there was so many plants they would not no that he eat some but in a blink of a eye all the plants were gone but the styracosaurus did not eat eny of the plants the just disappeared in mid air. Then jill looked around there was no plants at all!!!!!!!!!

Rheif, age 3 1/2, Australia

She can come to my garden.

Owen, age 12

She took the dinosaur to the park to feed then took it to the zoo where it would be taken care of properly.

Jordan, age 5, Ausralia

In a jungle.

Eliza, age 7, Australia

Jill took the Dinosaur to the jungle where it could find plants to eat. The end.

Jessica, age 9, Australia

"Hey styrasaurus how about i buy you some plants and you can just munch on them?" "Raaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrraggggggggggghhhhhhhhh!" It meant yes!

Cherie, age 11, Australia

She sat there thinking for a while, then Jill had a brilliant idea. She stood up and ran to the park, yes there were some plants there. So Jill gave the Styracosaurus the plants and they lived happily ever after.

Christian, age 7, USA

Jill finally found some nearby woods and the dinasour was very happy and the people were happy too.

Teagan, age 6, Australia

Jill thought about this for a while... then she got it! She'd take the Styracossaurus to the forest, where it could eat all the tree's it wanted and it would be happy there.

Nerell, age12, Australia

So she went home and got all the food she had then she got the Styracosaurus to give her a ride to the local supermarket to buy all the fruit and vegies they had in stock. On the way the dinosaur ran out of energy and couldn't take Jill any further so she left him there and started of walking. Luckily it was only about 5 minutes away from where they were. When Jill got there she bought all the fruit and vegies - she didn't even keep some for herself. When she turned up with all the food the dinosaurs eyes lit up. He ate it all up! After he finished eating he had enough energy to get lifted into the air and evaporate into thin air. When Jill got home she saw a note and read it. It was a note from the dinosaur. It said “dear Jill thankyou for saving me from my death. I am livig happily in the jungle in the 6th century sighned Dino” and they lived happliy ever after. THE END!

Jordan, age 9, Australia

We decided to go to the forest which was 200 km away. So Jill thought, that's a long to travel I will hop on 'Styra's' back and ride he to the forest. It took us 2 hours to reach the edge of the forest. I showed 'Styra' some of the big plants and flowers that he might enjoy. 'Stra' ate until he was full. He could not eat any more, he was stuffed. 'Styra' then needed to sleep, so I took him to a shady spot where I always go and he lay down and fell asleep for the next 4 hours. When he woke up he did not need me any more and went back to his herd. He was very grateful for my help and licked my cheek to thank me.

Sophia, age 6, Australia

Jill thought she might find some plants in a garden.

Jakob, age 6, Australia

Jill went to the botanical gardens where she choose some food from the different plants for the dinosaur.

Shakira, age 8, Australia

Jill thought and thought, then she rememberd that she knew a rainforest near Willow Creek. It was a long way away but she wanted to help the dinosaur. She said to the dinosaur, I will take you to a rainforest to eat plants. The dinosaur was very happy to see all the plants. He knew he would not have to worry anymore about where to get his food. Jill and Styracosaurus remain friends and see each other regularly.

Karli, age 8, Australia

So she went to her pops house to show it his lovey vegetable patch. When Jill’s pop got home he was very mad and killed Jill and the dinosaurs.

Nouha, age 10, Australia

Should she go around every house asking for grass for this poor dinousaur? Then immediently I came up with an idea, a very good idea. With no fear I ran up to Jill and the Styracosaurus and said: “the tropical rainforest!” “That’s a great idea. What’s your name?” asked Jill. “um ah my names Nouha”. I answered proudly. “Well Nouha, thanks to you we can get this dinosaur back in shape, here” she said handing a small peice of cardboard with writing on it. “What’s this?” I asked. “It’s a family ticket to Questacon, I hope you'll enjoy yourself there, she said, if you even go”. “Are you kidding, of course I’ll go, I've always wanted to go to Questacon, thanks Jill”. “No thankyou, you’ve been a great help, goodbye”. “Goodbye”, I answered staring at the ticket.

Demi, age 12, Australia

Then she saw a plant shop and grabbed one and then she came back and fed styracosaurus and then she went to go home.

James, age 9, Australia

Jill went to the zoo. She said to the zoo keeper "do you have room for a dinosaur. It needs a home and food."

"Yes I have a good 1 acre place" said the zoo keeper, so the dinosaur had a better home and it stayed ther for ever and ever. The end.

Tori, age 13, Australia

She could down to a shop and buy some plants for the dinosaur to eat. The end.

Joshua, age 7, Australia

Jill remembered that there are lots of plants in the park just around the corner. She slowly walked down the road with the friendly dinosaur until he saw all the food and he was happy. He made a big mess of the pretty gardens but he got to have some dinner.

Zoe, age 10, Australia

So she traveled through to Esk on the dinosaus back and found some lucious plants behind the sawmill. The dinosaur lived behind the sawmill and ate all the plants. The end.

Simone, age 12, Australia

Jill could find the plants from the wildlife zoo or a park.

Sophie, age 5 1/2, Australia

So Jill went to the shops to buy some plants. And then she planted them. And the dinosaur ate the plants and that's the end.

Charotte, age 5 1/2, Australia

She went to her house and let the dinosaur eat some of her grass. It didn't matter if he ate all of the grass because she could water her ground and grow some more. That's all.

Paul, age 10, Australia

Then Jill put the dinosaur on her truck and took her to a remote forest and the dinosaur lived happily. The end.

Caitlin, age 10, Australia

So she looked and looked until suddendly she rememberbred the zoo. They had lots of plants for him to eat and an amazing site to see. But there was only one problem...

Cody, age 6, USA

Jill should take the dinosaur to the park or to the Amazon Jungle. Styracousarus lived happily ever after. The end.

Kevin, age 10, Australia

Then jill told the dinosaur to follow her and they went all the way to a forest.The dinosaur was so happy it went chewing till midnight.

Anonymous

Jill had an idea. There was always a few farms near by. Maybe she could get some plants there. Jill walked the dinosaur to one of the farms.

A farmer greeted her as she came near. "How can I help you?"he asked. "May I have some grass for this chap here?" Jill asked. "Sure, there's always a few grass around here these rainy days."the farmer replied and handed her a huge bundle of grass. "Thanks!" Jill said and turned to feed the hungry reptile.

It was very hungry and nudged jill when it had finished its food. Jill asked the dinosaur where it had come from. Dinotoniar. "This is a mystery" she thought.

The poor dinosaur which was now full stomped off into the forest, waving at Jill. "Good bye" it called.

Adelle, age 8, USA

forest! It had plants! The styracosaurus was happy! THE END

Corey, age 9, Australia

It took a while but Jill finally discovered the answer, she would ask Mr Green if she could have one of every vegetable he has in his garden and with the new modern day technology she can clone them and the Styracosaurus would have all the vegies he would need. So she went and made the clones and the dinosaur and Jill lived happily ever after.

Rachel, age 10, Australia

Then Jill had a idea. She looked on a map and saw a giant nature reserve just out side the town. Jill got in her 4WD and tied the dinosaur to the back bumper bar and drove off to the nature reserve. When she got there she had to pay $5 to get in. She payed and went in then took the Dinosaur to a big bush. The dinosaur ate it and was happy, then Jill went home.

Rachellack, age 9, Australia

Jill said 'come on I know a great place where some trees and plants are so follow me'. So they went to Botanical Gardens. When they got there the Styracosaurus gasped. He thought it was the best feeding ground ever. So he headed straight for the nearest bush. As quick as a flash the bush had disappeard and after he ate ten or fifteen bushes or so he sat in the shady spot to have a rest.

When he woke up there was a huge wall of electric fence around him. He started to panic. He couldn't believe it. He rubbed and rubbed his eyes, to find it was all a big bad dream. The plants that he had eaten made him a bit dosy and so he got up and headed straight for the bush. And so the Styracosaurus never appeared in the city again. Some say he died and others say that he went to another city. But every night I go out and have a look at the stars. Every night there is a new star to be born.

Michael, age 6, Australia

Jill found some plants at the botanical gardens and took the dinosaur there. He found some trees to relax under when it was boiling hot to have some shade. There were lots of plants for him to eat. Heaps and heaps! And he was a happy dinosaur until he finished off all the gardens.

Jeremy, age 6 ¹/₂, USA

Across the street from my house! There are lots and lots of trees and bushes for the Styracosaurus to eat & eat & eat!! I will put a collar & a leash on him and take him there.

Tennille, age 10, Australia

So Jill thought a while. Then she remembered that there was a diserted farm on the south-eastern side of the city. "What luck she thought!" so off she went to take the Styracosaurus to the farm. But she woundered why it was no longer used???

Jesse, age 12, Australia

Jill was still talking to the dinosaur when she saw more dinosaurs coming and she saw that one of the dinosaurs was being mean. She started screaming but JIll came up and said "don't worry I won't hurt you I promise" and in the end all the dinosaurs lived in a colony and Jill was the leader and she tells them what to do.

Luchia, age 10, England

Then she realised, there was a park not that far away. So, Jill began to lure the dinosaur to the park.

Breanna, age 9, USA

We can bring you to gardens or cornfields in Indianapolis or some other place.

Victoria, age 9, Australia

Jill went to the botanical gardens and foumd some weeds. The Styracosaurus liked the weed and gobbled it down. Jill lived with the Styracosaurus for 10 yrs untill it came to an end. Styracosaurus had to go back to his home and live with his freinds. Jill was ok with it and she found another pet, it was a chimp. Jill always had a memory of him and lived on.

Catriona, age 12, Australia

She led the dinosaur around the street until it was dark. Shelooked as though she was going to give up when she saw the best place that it could possibly live in. It had lush ferns and tall trees which were growing out of the greenest grass you had ever seen!

Unfortunately it was private property and unfortunately the dinosaur saw it first. In it bounded. It either didn't see the "No Tresspassing" sign or just didn't care. As it pushed it's way into the metal gates a series of alarms went off! Suddenely a group of armed police officers ran onto the scene.

A stately figure was standing on the porch of the great house. "What is the meaning of this?" she demanded. Jill answered her so quitely that I couldn't hear but it had obviousley worked. "Of course the dinosaur can stay here!" And, to this day that is where Jill's friend the dinosaur lives.

Brody, age 7, Australia

Jill went to where Styracosaurus came from. Because Jill went on a plane. Then Jill landed on the islandand she picked lots and lots and lots of plants for Styracosaurus then they were best friends.

Deniz, age 5, USA

Jill took it to the park, it found so many plants, and they had a picnic.

Tamsin, age 11, Australia

Then Jill told the dinosaur to stay put until she got back from the country Jill was going to the country to get some greens for the Styracosaurus.

Jasmine, age 14, Australia

So they went to peoples park and the dinosaur find some food. They looked and looked then they finally found some food! After this happened he became the lovable pet to Jill like Clifford the Big Red Dog. He became a famous dinosaur like Barney who worked on a lot of kid shows.

Jill started a TREMENDOUS garden for her "new and old" friend. Right now I can see Strac and Jill in the park with there happy relationship as friends.

Scott, age 11, Australia

Jill and everyone learnt to live with dinosaurs. Jill built a park where dinosaurs could live happily. There was lots of plants.

The End

Megan, age 13, USA

So she got an idea. She would take him to to a wildlife preserve so he could eat all the plants he wants.

Thomas, age 5, Australia

She showed him the way to a forest to eat all the trees and grass and he was happy.

Christopher, age 6, Australia

At a nursery, there are always plenty of plants there. If there are not enough plants for him, he can come to our house.

Karl, age 6, USA

Jill looked for plants in the forest, and on trees and bushes. The dinosaur wasn't hungry anymore and was happy.

Aidan, age 8, UK

They went to the woods and the dinosaur was very happy and he lived 'til he died.

Audrey, age 12, Canada

"I know where we could take you!" Jill cried happily, "I'll get in my car and you can follow me." Jill got into her car and drove to the forest. The Styracosaurus was so happy to see all of those lushious green plants. He was so thankful that he told Jill he would be her sevant. Jill named the dino Technoe and from that day till the day they both died Jill and Technoe never parted.

THE END!

Alex, age 11, Australia

Jill remembered the botanical gardens, there would be lots of food there. Jill led the dinosaur towards the gardens and as he got closer he could smell the fresh vegetation. The dinosaur started running towards the gardens and dived head first into a hugh bunch of bushes, where he started munching away happily! The End.

Taylor, age 12, Australia

As Jill put her arms around the poor dinosaur she said "I know how to get you some food!" She ran to the supermarket and got all the vegetables and gave them to the poor dinosaur.

"Here" she said. " Eat this". The dinosaur ate the food and was very happy.

After that they became very good friends. So if you see a dinosaur and Jill walking down the street say hello for me ok?

Megan, age 7, USA

Jill flew the dinosaur FedEx to the Amazon jungle. COD.

Amanda, age 11, Australia

Jill shifted the dinosaur to another country were it would have food and water. The country was a special place because dinosaurs still were alive. Jill was the only person in the whole world who knew that that counrty still existed. The dinosaur was very happy in his new home with all his friends and plenty of plants.

Daniel, age 5, Australia

Jill found some plants in the forest so she took the Styracosaurus to the forest to eat the plants. The dinosaur lived happily ever after and Jill went home.

Ryhs, age 6, England

Jill took the dinosaur to the woods. They found some plants.

The Styracosaurus was happy because it had found some plants to eat. She ate lots and lots of them. Once her tummy was full she went back to her home.

Stephanie, age 13, Australia

Jill began to think for a very long time. Suddenly she had a wonderful, out of this world idea! She lead the Styracosaurus to Botanical Garden which was a few minutes away from her house.

The dinosaur began to eat the rare plants in the glass pyramid. The door was too tiny to fit through so it crashed to the ground with a loud shatter the glass broke. People noticed it consuming the plants and got really furious then they chased Jill and the Styracosaurus. How will they get out of this mess?

Justin, age 10, Australia

Suddenly Jill had an idea. She took the Styracosaurus to the Botanic Gardens.

The dinosaur ran for the nearest plants and started eating everything in sight.The caretaker came and got very upset and called the RSPCA. When the dog catcher came he couldn't believe his eyes. He tried to fit him in his truck but of course he couldn't.

Finally Jill said she would take it home to live with her on her farm and the Botanic Gardens people promised to grow lots of the special plants for Styracosaurus and the RSPCA man said he would deliver them every day in his truck.

Class K/1/2, age 7, Australia

Jill walked down to the park with Styracosaurus. There were plenty of trees and lots of grass. There was also a pond for Styracosaurus to have a drink.

Jill built a paddock especially for "Sty". He was very happy there because he had lots to eat and lots to drink. He lived happily ever after.

Emily, age 6, Australia

She took Sty to the park and made a paddock for him and he lived happily ever after.

Alex, age 5, Australia

These dinosaurs like eating ferns and leaves so we need to find them near a lake. There are lots of leaves in a park so we could go there. The dinosaur will then be very happy when it has a full tummy.

Daniel, age 5, Australia

So Jill asked if she could send Styracosaurus into my backyard and I checked with mum and she said yes. He came to live with us for the rest of the year.

Regan, age 5, USA

She went home to her garden and picked all her lettuce for the dino. She gave it to him. He ate it all up. He was happy that day!

Catriona, age 10, Australia

Jill went to the nursery to look for plants. Luckily the shop owner owned the dinosaur. Jill cried into his scales. But said politely through tears will I ssee him again? I am so sorry but there is somthing in that pot for you.When Jill turned around the dinsaur jumped into the air with the owner on his back. Jill picked up a scale then she stared up to the sky Good bye Dinosaur. And a roar answered back.

Joely, age 3, England

In the park.

Andrew, age 9, USA

Jill could take her to the grassland.

Katie McWilliam, age 8, Australia

We will go to the garden and he said how are we going to get there? We will fly are plane then he got some food.

William, age 6, USA

Jill went to the forest to find plants for the dinosaur to eat. The dinosaur felt great after he got to eat a meal of plants.

The dinosaur went to the lake for a drink. The dinosaur saw fish in the lake, and a shark too. The dinosaur was not afraid of the shark.

He stepped on the shark. He was afraid of a whale. The dinosaur ate the whale. The dinosaur said thank you to Jill. Jill said you're welcome dinosaur.

Mr Moen's Second Grade Class, age 8 and 9, USA

Jill said, "I have an idea." Sty, a nickname for styracosaurus, responded by saying,"What is your idea?" Jill said, "I will take you to the jungle and you can eat some plants." Sty said, "How are we going to get there?" "I will take you by airplane." Sty said, "Won't the plane go down?" While flying they saw another styracosaurus. Looking down at the others, Jill realized they didn't have any food either. Styracosaurus was sad again. The plane landed and Jill went to the other styracosauruses and said, "Follow me and you will have food." They went to the jungle and found lots of food. And they lived happily until they heard Ty Rex's roar. The End

Alex, age 8, USA

Jill said, "Follow me." Jill and Styracosaurus walked through the town. All the people stared at them. They were heading to the other side of town. Jill knew where they would go. As they reached the edge of town, Jill could see the small white house on the hill. As they approached the house Jill saw the figure of an older white haired lady. The noise Styracosaurus made from his steps made the old lady turn to look. "Hi, Grandma!" said Jill. Jill explained the situation to her Grandma.

Grandma nodded her head in understanding and motioned with her hand for Jill to follow. The three of them traveled to the rear of the house. Behind the house on the hill was a huge field with rolling hills and covered in green from the plants it hosted. The Styracosaurus grinned a toothy dinosaur grin and Grandma said, "You are welcome to feast on the hills of my farm." Jill visited Grandma often. But now her trips to the farm were even more exciting because she could watch Styracosaurus grazing in the grass.

Isaac and Mike, age 9

Jill found a good place - at the park! The park was a great place. And the dinosaur was happy. The End.

Mrs Bromeland's Second Grade Class, age 7 and 8, USA

Jill started a lemonade stand. Each cup of Lemonade cost 10 cents. She sold 50 cups in three days. She earned enough money to buy some plants at Gartzke's Greenhouse. She bought so many plants that the dinosaur got full.

Mrs Prestegard's Second Graders, age 7 and 8, USA

Jill took the Styracosaurus to the city park. They both did the "rain dance". Moments later it began to rain, and the entire park was transformed into a tropical garden! The Styracosaurus munched happily away at the fresh plants.

Mrs Lawatsch's Second Graders, age 7 and 8, USA

Jill took Styracosaurus to Gartzke's Greenhouse. Here they grow flowers and vegetables. Styracosaurus ate so much that he became a sumo wrestler! He was the best!

Gordon, age 9, Australia

Jill caught a taxi and the dinosaur ran beside. When they got to the airport, she went on the plane with Styracosaurus. In a day's time, they landed in Africa and the dinosaur got out and ran away into the jungle. Then Jill hopped back on the plane and went back home.

Tim, age 12, Australia

Jill decided to take the dinosaur to the Botanic Gardens in Canberra. But the people there wouldn't let the dinosaur eat all the plants. So Jill took the dinosaur to the Science and Technology Centre. The people there said that they would feed him as long as he would be a part of a dinosaur exhibit. The dinosaur agreed and when the dinosaurs were all set up and the exhibit opened, it gave rides to little children. People came from all around the world and the Centre made thousands of dollars. With all the money made, the Centre set up a dinosaur museum with real dinosaurs. The Styracosaurus made lots of new friends and was very happy.

Melissa Yong, age 8, USA

Suddenly she had a great idea. Jill went to a park where there were lots of plants. She gave some to the dinosaur. The dinosaur thanked her and bought her a box of chocolates. Everyone was happy from that day on... so was the dinosaur. The dinosaur was invited to stay in the country and eat as many plants as he could eat.

Class 2T, age 7, Australia

She took him to a plant nursery and asked the man to give them some plants. The man said," No I don't sell plants for eating." So they walked out the door and went to the rainforest where the dinosaur lived happily ever after.

Richie, age 5

Jill gets the dinosaur to follow her to the greenhouse. He eats the plants until they are all gone. Then he goes to another and another and another. Will he go to all the greenhouses?

Sean, age 9, Australia

Jill took styracosaurus to the nearest nursery, which was about 3km away. So they went to Jellys Park but Jellys Park only had grass and two trees that styracosaurus couldn't reach so Jill stood on styracosaurus and got some leaves for styracosaurus to eat.

Kristina, age 9, Australia

Jill went to Woolworths and bought a stack of celery and gave it to the dinosaur. The dinosaur almost bit her hand off because he was so excited to find some food. He growled to say "thankyou" which frightened Jill.

Michael, age 7, Australia

They travelled all around the world until they got to the last country. The last country was Brazil. They found enough plants there for the styracosaurus to eat.

Shawn, age 8, USA

After 80 million years of roaming the earth as the last of the surviving dinosaurs the Styracosaurus' DNA spontaneously mutated. In a matter of minutes the docile herbivore became a ferocious carnivore. The menacing creature suddenly had large fangs. It used these fangs to turn on Jill. He thrust the razor sharp blade through her skull, pithing her. He calmly ate her brains as for some reason this was his favourite part. Being a dinosaur he had no natural enemies and was allowed to rampage freely through the streets eating people's brains. It would be hours before the army could ship a weapon large enough to kill this animal.

By the end of the day, 42 people were dead and many countless others were injured in the ensuing stampedes. The moral of the story is — if you see a dinosaur in your town, don't try to pet it.

P.S. My cousin helped with some of the words but the ideas were mine. By the way my favourite dinosaur is the Pachysephalasaurus.
