Review

Hidden Dinosaurs is written for younger kids, say preschoolers, in a poetry-style with large pictures and sprinkled with little 'find the such-and-such hidden in the trees' elements in the familiar 'Highlights for Children' style. I can see it being quite an engaging storytime book for parents who read to their children at bedtime. --Fossil News

Hidden Dinosaurs lets you accompany a 21st-century paleontologist as he searches for fosils on digs in the United States and around the world. Detailed illustrations and fact boxes complement the text. --Dig magazine

3.0 out of 5 stars Uneven content, September 5, 2008
By 
Arleen (Fayetteville, NC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hidden Dinosaurs (Hardcover)
The reviews say this is for age 4-8, but most children would probably need to be in the upper end of that range to enjoy the book on their own. The pages have large pictures in bold colors with information about dinosaurs in rhyme. The dinosaurs aren't readily identifiable, and the rhymes aren't that good. Smaller dinosaurs are "hidden" in the illustrations, but even adults may find them hard to find. Each page contains an inset box with detailed information. Summing up: there are better dinosaur books out there; not worth the retail price.
