pgs Walter Foster Jr(Quatro), 2016. $19.95. NONFICTION
This large book (yearbook size) features information about the
Late Jurassic life. Its grouped into Theropods, Sauropods, Ornithischuans,
Pterosaurs and the mammals. Each double page spread features one or two
creatures with basic information and large illustrations. There are close ups
of a wide variety, bones, and comparisons, such as scale to humans.
This is a top notch book for students. The dinosaur books
receive the most circulation from K-2 graders, and this book contains just
enough information without being too overwhelming. The cover is incredible with
a texture and raised dinosaur. The pages are large with incredible
illustrations that looks fairly realistic. The facts are interesting and brief.
The book also feels like it will hold up well to young readers and the pages
lay flat easily, which is a huge plus.
