This one, and the Wizard of Oz one are prelined on the scratch pages, which makes it much easier for little kids. It is very difficult to tell which ones have lines - I think it is only the ones marked for ages for and up.

I saw this at Barnes & Noble and decided to purchase online. It was an unexpected Christmas gift for my 5-year-old boy who is not yet reading. In the two weeks since Christmas, he has gone through the entire book. He LOVES it. I am pre-ordering the Pirate and Safari ones for his Birthday. The only drawback I found was that the black pages rub off some on his hand, so if he rubs his eye or something, it looks like we beat him. But it washes off and it's worth it to see him enjoy it so much. I totally recommend it.

The entire series of these scratch and sketch books provide hours of fun and quiet! They are ideal for restaurant waits and anywhere that requires well behaved, engaged children.

I have a bunch of these books, and enjoy them a lot. "Dino Dudes" isn't like the others. All pages are pre-drawn, like a coloring book. There is room to add touches of your own sketch designs. The back has 20 card stock pages to doodle, which is always nice!

My 6 year old got this book for Christmas and it was one of his favorite gifts! He loves art and he LOVED tracing the white lines in this book to scratch off the top layer, revealing the colorful or sparkly paper underneath. He could have easily traced this book at age 4 or 5, too. The only downside was that he liked it so much he completed the tracing in the book within two days. He went back through the pages and added some of his own things then like trees, flowers, birds, etc., so I think the next book like this we get for him will be the kind without the lines for tracing. This was a great book to get him started in scratch and sketch media, though! He enjoyed reading the dinosaur descriptions, too!
