Reviews

[Clearlyclaire · Rating 5 out of 5]

Easy to read, well organized and fits perfectly in my son's cargo pocket of his jeans. He got this when he was 5 (after we had checked it out of the library at least a dozen times) and he still has it today (he's 10). Nice line drawings of the dinosaurs with well-organized but not an overwhelming amount of facts. Very consistent writing. Easy-to-use but not babyish.

Old Children's Book. Liked it as a kid, but haven't read it in years.
