Inspiring

My boys...were immediately inspired by the fascinatingprojects in this book! However, they are not able to makethe projects independently. I would highly recommend thisbook for parents of kids who are willing to get their handsdirty and for parent of kids who like multi-day projects.We had a blast building a full model Stegasarous and T-rex,but we spent many hours building them.You will need to go to other resources for full detailsabout how/when/where the dinos lived. This is mostly a projectbook and less of a reference book. But the projects are sofun and interesting, it will make you want to learn more.
