This review is from: Triceratops Gets Lost - a Smithsonian Prehistoric Pals Book (Mini book) (Paperback)

I bought this for my wife as a sort of gag gift for her birthday, she is a paleontologist and was quite perturbed at the whole classification of Triceratops being changed to adolescent Torosaurus the title of this book was the gag. My one worry was that it would not get here in time. To my pleasure it was delivered days before and packaged extremely well! She loved the gift and everyone had a laugh. thank you for helping make her birthday!

This review is from: Triceratops Gets Lost - a Smithsonian Prehistoric Pals Book (with Audiobook CD and poster) (Smithsonian's Prehistoric Pals) (Paperback)

This book is great, we just got if from our local library, and my son 2 1/2 loves it! The illustrations are amazingly well done and the story is the perfect length for young ears. This book also has a place to store the CD so it's easy to keep track of. I would love to check out the rest of this series!
