is still overwhelming

You can't like every book, even if it's about something as cool as dinosaurs. The overly stylized cartoon dinosaurs were too silly for me. Even my 3 year old was annoyed at the inaccuracies of the illustrations. He argued that Tyrannosaurus really should have 2 fingers on each hand. For a book that is supposed to be filled with facts, the dino nicknames were confusing too. We are still trying to figure out why Apatosaurus might be slimy and a Iguanadon might be clean. This one was a one time only read and is headed back to the library.

Dinosaur More! is full of fun dinosaur facts about a variety of types of dinosaurs. The colorful illustrations are attractive to children and keep them turning the pages to learn more about each kind of dinosaur.

This is an excellent science book for a school library, a classroom library or to have at home for your child to enjoy.
