Liz is sure that her next-door neighbour has a secret. He's got a very long neck, clumpy feet and a strange taste for green leaves... he's a dinosaur! Unfortunately, she's not the only one who's noticed. When Mr Wilson is taken away by scientists, Liz realises that everyone is free to live the life they wish and she must help save her friend.
