'''''Dinosaur Dilemma''''' is the seventh book in the ''[[Nintendo Adventure Books]]'' series. The book was written by {{wp|Russell Ginns|Clyde Bosco}}. It is the first to be based on the then-brand-new ''[[Super Mario World]]'', shortly after which it takes place.

==Plot synopsis==
'''The story from the back cover:'''
<blockquote>'''Flying Duo Battles [[Koopa Troop|Koopa Clan]]'''<br>[[Mario]] and his new [[dinosaur]] friend, [[Yoshi]], fly across [[Dinosaur Land]] to save Yoshi's homeland from the dreaded Koopa Clan. [[Bowser]]'s armies have invaded the peaceful kingdom of the dinosaurs, threatening Yoshi's friends and family with total extinction.<br><br>As in all Nintendo Adventure Books, you control the action. Only you can make the choices that allow Mario and Yoshi to overcome the perils they face on the rocky shores of Dinosaur Land. Help them crack codes, solve puzzles, conquer mazes, and subdue enemies. Together, you must outwit a whole new collection of Koopa creeps&mdash;or go down in final defeat!</blockquote>
