"By focusing on both familiar and more exotic animals, [the books]
are easily accessible to beginner readers who might otherwise
struggle with the wealth of information these books hold. Key
vocabulary is highlighted and defined for readers, helping to build
literacy skills at the same time as ecological awareness. Finally,
[the books] conclude with a list of activities and further
references, encouraging readers to engage and to learn more on
their own."-- The Children's Book Review
"An excellent book for any young dinosaur lover...guaranteed to be
