Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Reviewed with Samantha Gray's Ocean.
Gr. 3-5. The publisher's traditional format morphs into something a little bit different here. These books in the new Eye Wonder series are smaller, but the images remain pretty much the same. What's more, the publisher's recommended age level (ages five through eight) holds true only if an adult is reading the text aloud. Dinosaur uses model figures to introduce the creatures, with snippets of information surrounding the images. Among the topics covered are movement, hunting, nest and nurseries, and theories about the death of dinosaurs. Ocean uses a scattershot approach and covers a wide-range of subjects: sea creatures, coral reefs, and underwater exploration. The pictures in Ocean are clearer than those in Dinosaur, but both books provide facts that will spark kids' interest. Still, libraries already having a full complement of books in the publisher's signature style may not feel the need to add these. Ilene Cooper

Very Informational,
By
This review is from: Dinosaur (Eye Wonder) (Hardcover)
I know it's geared towards older kids, but we purchased this book for our then 3-year-old, who LOVES dinosaurs (Walking with Dinosaurs is one of his favorite programs). After a year and a half he stills asks me to read it to him. He loves the pictures, and enjoys learning the different facts. No matter how many times we read it, he still finds questions to ask. We chose it because it actually has the correct pronunciation for each dinosaur featured (something many other books didn't have). I would certainly recommend it to any dinosaur lover, regardless of age.
