Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

The first two volumes of the Dinoverse series, these capers star four junior high students who have somehow traveled back to prehistory and been turned into dinosaurs. Despite the "scientific facts about the era woven into the plot a little too self-consciously," PW praised the debut entry (originally published as Dinoverse) for its "enticing blend of humor, adolescent angst and crisis-a-chapter excitement." Ages 9-up. (Mar.)

In paper back form, this is the second half of the Dinoverse Hardcover book. Which of course means that it is absolutely wonderful. Aside from a great story, the art by Fredericks is a great visual commentary.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: The Teens Time Forgot (Dinoverse(TM)) (Paperback)

The books is about these four teens that had gone back in time, into the Cretaceceous age. So any way they had turn turn into these four great dinosaur. There names are Mike the T-rex,Jaine the Quetalcoatlus, Candayce the Leptoceratops, last but not least Bertram who is the Ankylosaurus. They were once human but now dinosaurs who romned the earth befor us. But to top it all of they had to face all sorts of danger. So they had traveld a long way to look for the standing stones. They are (standing stones)stones that just like them. Will Bertram had gotten in touch or should I say in love with another Akylosaurus. The female Ankylosarus was going to have a new mate, because she had lost her first male in a flood. Before that had happen it was Mike with Bertram traveling together intell they had met with a old enemy. Now, that has left Candace and Jaine to work to get to the futre and hya they did go through weird changes. Will the ever make it home?

I'v e been to the bookstores and have seen a lot of your books and find the characters to be believable and empathetic. Young people seem to really enjoy your style and ability to create surprise, mystery and excite, all the while weaving very grounded principles and morals to the stories.

Great Work!!!!!!
