Don Lessem: Hi. My name is Don Lessem, Dino Don if you're under 10. I do a column in Highlights Magazine. More than 10,000 kids have written to me, and I've answered them all as Dino Don, so I love to be called that. My last name, Lessem, is also the name of a dinosaur, Lessemsaurus. What happened is some nice scientist in Argentina decided to name a dinosaur after me. The not so nice part is that it has a small brain and a huge stomach.
