Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The O'Sauruses live happily on Thunder Mountain when a letter arrives from Megafright International. M.I. plans to tear down the O'Sauruses' bucolic home and put a theme park in its place, complete with robot monsters and a Tunnel of Terror. But Megafright has never dealt before with the mega-determined O'Sauruses. As robot construction workers remove the rocky debris of Thunder Mountain and replace it with plastic, the O'Sauruses are doing some re-construction of their own -- right under the robots' noses.
"First published in Great Britain in 1999 by Faber and Faber Limited" -- Verso of T.p.
When Megafright International flattens their beautiful mountain to put up a hi-tech plastic theme park, the O'Saurus family uses faith and lots of Monsta-Gloo to put things right.
