Customer Reviews

Good illustrations, easy to read

(I just typed a long review and it vanished, darn it.) A good series, with good illustrations. I only have Volume 6, Dinosaur Cousins, out of the library, and I especially like the clear drawings of the dino skeletons. Each set of two facing pages has its own topic presented in bold face on the upper left, with paragraphs and wonderfully up-to-date illustrations, arguments, and open-ended questions. If you like this subject matter, you may also like _The Flying Dinosaurs_ by Philip J. Currie with illustrations by Jan Sovak.
