Very Good Book For the Right Age Group

First, this book is probably best suited for 7-11 year-olds. I read it to my 4 and 6 year olds, and they were quickly bored. There is a lot of information and detail that will leave little ones distracted. However, the book should prove very interesting to older children because of its excellent illustrations and interesting story.Follow Professor Curious as he tries to figure out how dinosaur footprints could be found at the top of the Alps. Especially since dinosaurs were, "big, fat, and somewhat lazy." and, "They hated hiking." The author uses humor, scientific theory, good examples and illustrations to answer the questions how dinosaur footprints arrived at the top of the Alps.
