## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ also has maps of where fossils found and gives excellent details with bright and clear illustrations
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 10 March 2016*

A superb book for dinosaur lovers. It is subdivided into periods, also has maps of where fossils found and gives excellent details with bright and clear illustrations. not a book for the very young but certainly a book for mid primary school children upwards. I am sixty five and found it very informative. A brilliant light reference book

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant for the Dinosaur Curious
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 22 April 2013*

I have a dinosaur obsessed 7 year old boy. He loves to read this book to himself (loving dinosaurs has increased his reading age by a couple of years, this book can only help with that). He is already very knowledgeable about dinosaurs but the book managed to include information he hadn't come across before. A highly readable book for the youngster interested in dinosaurs.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant book for more in depth dinosaur info
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 17 January 2016*

My 9 year old wanted a dinosaur book that didn't just feature the standard dinosaurs so I looked for a more adult book. This is perfect still a lot of pictures but full of fascinating facts, sub species and information about the periods. Perfect for any dino fan.
