Customer Reviews

Entertaining and educational read for people of all ages

I purchased this book a while ago for my 10 year old daughter when she was interested in dinosaurs. Now my 7 year old son is reading it and is enjoying it quite a bit. The writing style is entertaining and keeps your attention, but the books is filled with all kinds of useful information for anyone even remotely interested in fossils.

My 9-year old Daughter looooves this book

My 9yo got this when she was 8. She has wanted to be a paleontologist since she was about 5, and this book is dog-eared from reading it. It has held her attention well.

Awesome

This is a GREAT book. My son loves it and it's very good for young people who are interested in the field of paleontology.

Bones Rock!

Well-written and illustrated book that will appeal to children who have an interest in rocks, and may be thinking of becoming a paleontologist.

Best Dino book for kids ever!

My kids are 8 and 10, and they are both obsessed with Bones Rock! They love it for the awesome photos and the tips about learning to be paleontologists. I love it because they are learning the scientific method without even realizing it. I'm a teacher and I think this is one of the best classroom tools I've come across in a long time. Wow!
