The eight-year-old in my reading group kept correcting my pronunciation of Pteranodon...which I was clueless and nervous about it. However, him correcting me made the book much more enjoyable for everyone *wink*.

This is a rendering of a pteranodon's life. The art is lush and detailed. A solid creative nonfiction offering. My 6-year-old daughter loved it.
