Amazon.com Review Everything about The Big Book of Dinosaurs is off the charts--the size of the book itself, the elaborate two-page spreads, the color models, and even the oversized type. Children can experience the amazing powers of these prehistoric beasts--the jagged teeth of the ferocious meat eaters, the slashing claws of the Deinonychus, and the long-necked Barosaurus that could reach five-story-high treetops and may have had eight hearts. Yet, like the dinosaurs themselves, there is nothing threatening or intimidating about this highly informative book. The text is brief and succinct, only conveying facts that children find interesting. (There's even an index for quick searches of favorite dinos.) The lifelike illustrations give young readers a solid sense of what dinosaur fossils and skeletal systems look like as well as clear mental pictures of how these creatures appeared in "real-life" millions of years ago. (Ages 4 to 7) --Gail Hudson
Product Description A first book of dinosaurs for young children. The Big Book of Dinosaurs is an enticing collection of dinosaurs that is sure to excite any child. It is packed with full-color photographs of life-like models plus detailed illustrations. The simple text describes interesting features, while questions encourage children to compare various dinosaurs.

Great Book! My 6 year old loves it! July 16, 2010 Sharon White (Murfreesboro, TN United States) This is a very colorful and educational book. My six year old son loves it. He reads it to me all the time! I would recommend it to all the little dinosaur lovers in your life.
Pretty good book on dinosaurs April 12, 2010 Heather Groves (Raleigh, NC United States) This book is well written, well organized and full of nice pictures and interesting details on dinosaurs.
The thing to make sure you are aware of it that it deals strictly with "dinosaurs". Pteradons (the flying reptiles like pteradactyls, etc.) and the "swimming dinosaurs" - icthyosaurs, plesiosaurs, and pliosaurs (who are actually swimming reptiles)are not represented in the book.
It is a well done book, but if you have a child like mine who is into the flying and swimming reptiles from that era, you will need a different book, since it is out of the scope of this one.
Great Dino Book January 21, 2010 A. Banks (NOVATO, CA, US) My son loves to look at all the detailed pictures. The book has a lot of great facts and names of a lot of dinos we had not heard of before. Mom of 2 1/2 year old son.
Great book for my dinosaur fanatic! November 10, 2009 Blue eyed American girl (Harrogate UK) My 6 year old just got this book and he loves it. He sat on Dad's lap looking at each picture and finding out all the little facts. It is larger than most of his books but space will be made on the book shelf by lying it flat. It will also make a nice display book.
Dinosaur book October 27, 2009 Amber Pippin This is the greatest book on dinosaurs, ever! It has loads of information and big colorful pictures. My 4 yr old son loves this book.
