Editorial Reviews

A bright, eye-catching format, naturalistic illustrations, and concise prose introduce readers to 52 dinosaur species, organized by size—small, big, giant, or gigantic. Distinguishing characteristics of each dinosaur (“Utahraptor had clawed feet”) appear in a large font like a headline on each spread; informative sidebars, charts that compare each dino’s size to a human, phonetic pronunciations, and lively interactive prompts (“Have you ever tried digging in dirt to find an earthworm?”) make this an especially engaging primer. A map of dinosaur fossil finds and a glossary are included. Ages 4–8. (Oct.)
