Sweet Book Summary:
A whimsical look at what animals around us today remind us of dinosaurs. Even though dinosaurs haven't roamed the earth in many millions of years, Most helps children see the possible ancestry in current day animals. Could a rhinoceros have descended from a triceratops? After posing these questions, the author than gives a little bio on each dinosaur. Your dinosaur fan will be in heaven, with all the information. And as I mentioned before, even your young readers not that interested in paleontology will enjoy the comparison game. The illustrations are amazing. This book has really stood the test of time. |
