Target Books' Doctor Who output in 1976 was its most varied to date. Each of the first four Doctors had at least one novelisation that year, with the bulk split evenly between the Third and Fourth Doctors. Target continued to focus on novelising serials with missing episodes from the First and Second Doctors' eras. 1976 also marked Target's first foray into the "educational" market with The Doctor Who Dinosaur Book.
