great book

My 4 year old son loves this book. I've found very few booksabout dinosaurs that are on his level. This one is perfect. Ithas concrete information about different dinosaurs and comparesthem to familiar animals, and there are no gory pictures. I'dhighly recommend it for this age level.

The size of Dinosaurs

My son is almost 3 and a dinosaur lover but he didn't understand why he couldn't see them in the zoo. I explained they lived long ago and this book helped him relate to the size and shape of dinosaurs by comparing them to animals he has seen. It really works!

Awesome

I am a teacher, and use this book in the classroom. I feel it does a good job of explaining things in a kid way. It promotes creative problem solving, and imagination. It is in terms the students can relate to. My students loved this book and so do I.
