Buy a dozen doughnuts, get a triceratops. Have a haircut, get a pterosaur. A small boy's very boring errand day is transformed by an unusual promotional campaign, in which, for no good reason, a dinosaur comes with everything. The idea is so simple, absurd and a kid's dream come true. It's told from a kid's point of view, but parents have their hero here too: the increasingly beleaguered mom, who probably didn't even want a dog.
