Dinosaur Bob and His Adventures With the Family Lazardo

Wealthy, free-thinking sophisticates Dr. and Mrs. Lazardo, their children, and Jumbu, their bodyguard-cum-manservant, are on safari in Africa when Scotty, the son, returns to camp with a great green brontosaurus. "He looks kind of like my Uncle Bob," said Mrs. Lazardo. So Bob it is, and after first sailing him down the Nile, they take him home with them.

In what looks like Roaring Twenties Pimlico Hills, Bob is a hit: He plays a swinging trumpet and has a hot glove on the baseball field. But he gets into a little trouble when he joins some neighborhood dogs chasing cars, and the chief of police orders him returned to Africa. The Lazardos spring Bob that night, however, and hide him until he can redeem himself by knocking in the winning run for the hapless Pimlico Pirates. The Pirates get their first victory ever, and Bob gets to stay.
