Worthwhile addition to the dino collection

Very brightly illustrated, and factually informative. Can be used with the very youngest dino fans (and the bug seems to set in earlier and earlier!).Many pages are fold-out, which provides a terrific effect for butting head-to-head Pachycephalosauruses and a marvellous parade featuring a Diplodocus, and a marvellous upright Brachiosaurus)The book compares some attributes of dinos with existing animals, so comparison is introduced (angrier, longer, crueler, faster, louder, eat more, taller, smaller, bigger)Shortlisted for the Children's Book Council of Australia for the Eve Pownall award for Information Books.The dinos are from North and Central America and Europe. I would have liked a couple of Aussie dinos included.
