Easily accessible info about an endlessly fascinating topic

While I enjoyed the fun facts and dino-destinations in Dino-Trekking, my four year old son absolutely adores the sketches in the book; so much so that he sometimes sleeps with the book beneath his pillow. I like how the different dinosaur sites are presented by state, and I also appreciate the useful site ratings. Halls describes the cost to see each site, whether it is a museum or a dinosaur amusement park, and she also ranks the quality of each. And, while she is obviously an expert on the subject, she is able to provide lots of important data in an easy-to-read and fun manner

Two opposable thumbs way way up!
