If you've ever wondered about what made dinosaurs so special, this is the book for you.' - Riley Black, author of The Last Days of the Dinosaurs'The touch and feel aspect of the illustrations is not only ingenious and sophisticated in its approach, it's also fun and inviting. Children aren't the only ones who will enjoy touching the bones, scales, skin, and beaks of these magnificent creatures!' - Youth Services Book Review'Be the coolest parent on the block and order the must-have dinosaur book of the season… the only caveat is that you'll have to keep pace with the 'did you know' facts.' - Bal Harbour Shops, Tali Minor'An oversized informational and visually rich book.' - Bluestocking Thinking, Nicole Levesque'The ultimate dinosaur book for children…' - Parenting Without Tears, Kathyrn Mayle'There are many books on the market about dinosaurs.
