Book excerpt: Millie and the Museum, Millie meets the dinosaurs is the first in a series of books made to inspire small children to visit museums. It is about a young girl, who is nervous in anticipation of her trip to the Natural History Museum to visit the dinosaurs. Unable to sleep the night before, Millie winds herself up to believe that she will be gobbled up by dinosaurs during her visit. She worries and worries all the way to the museum. On arrival her mischievous little sister Sophia zooms up the steps of the museum, as Millie fearfully contemplates the size of the dinosaurs based on the huge size of the museum. This character theme will resonate throughout the story. Millie cautiously enters the museum to find Dippy the Diplodocus looming overhead. She assumes, wrongly of course, that Dippy must have enormous teeth. While contemplating this, her worst fears are potentially brought to life by the noise and chaos which follows her sister Sophia everywhere. Sophia can be seen in the background zooming back and forth. Disaster follows as Sophia crashes straight into the Dippy exhibit, bones and dust fly everywhere. Next, Mummy arrives to calm the storm of fears with interesting facts and assurances about Dippy the herbivore and the dinosaur's ultimate extinction. Once calmed Millie is encouraged by Mummy to visit the other dinosaurs. The book concludes with a challenge to readers "Are you brave enough to visit the Natural History Museum?"
