This book is a work of historical fiction for the young child. This book introduces young children to paleontology and the prehistoric era in which the dinosaurs existed. It's very functional for young children because the author does a great job of simplifying the difficult language into children's terms. Also, the pictures are very simple and bright. They would definitely catch a child's eye. While not one of my top favorites, I would still recommend this book.

Today's letter at story time was B. I missed a good portion of this one because Natalie was crawling on something or another. What I did hear was a great introduction to paleontologists. Bold illustrations.

Six little paleontologists unearth and assemble a tyrannosaurus. A great book on its own and a must read for anyone near the Cerritos, CA library which features its very own full size T-rex, Stan.

Just like what we saw at the Dinosaur Discovery Site http://www.dinotrax.com/ in St. George, UT this weekend. Had fun with the cousins there.

Byron Barton can always be depended on to write books that children will enjoy and relate to, while learning something new.

I love Byron Barton for the 2 - 4 set. Simple text, simple pictures. Calum is really enjoying this one. No talking animals here.

My son really enjoyed reading this book out loud to me. His school sent it home as part of the dinosaur literacy bag.

It was super great. I like it because they found all the bones, digged them up, and put them in the museum.

Cute. Informative. And it actually tells you how to say the dinosaur names in the back of the book.

As with all Barton books it seems, great response from children. Assembling a dinosaur from dig to museum in minimal easy-to-follow language and bright colorful images.
