My dinosaur loving son gives this book an A!,
By Jen "Mom, NICU Nurse, and Disney freak" (Rock Hill, SC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Dinosaur Alphabet Book (Jerry Pallotta's Alphabet Books) (Paperback)
I've been having the worst time trying to review the alphabet with my 4 year old son. He is a dinosaur fanatic, so I was looking for this exact book for quite some time. Now he is more open to exploring and learning letters, since he also gets to read about dinosaurs at the same time. The illustrations could be better and I can think of some of the dinosaur names that could have been substituted for some of the letters, but overall this book fits the need :)

This review is from: The Dinosaur Alphabet Book (Jerry Pallotta's Alphabet Books) (Paperback)
my almost 3 year old son is obsessed with dinosaurs. i thought this would be a great book for him to learn more about dinosaurs, and learn his alphabet at the same time.
it is very informative, but the dinosaurs that are used are so difficult to pronounce! there needs to be some sort of phonetic spelling or something so that you can accurately read the book. i was hoping for something a litte more simplistic, maybe b is for brontosaurus?? t is for triceratops? the book is very nice, the pictures are great, it is just way above my son's head other than he knows they are different kinds of dinosaurs.

The Dinosaur Alphabet Book,

This review is from: The Dinosaur Alphabet Book (Jerry Pallotta's Alphabet Books) (Hardcover)
My 6 year old now knows more about dinosaurs than I do, or his teacher, or anyone else we know for that matter. This is a really cute book loaded with interesting information about dinosaurs. We found it originally at the library, and he liked it so much, we decided to buy it for him.
