Description
Even the very young have an infatuation with dinosaurs. This book by DK is written for the younger crowd and includes more visuals and a smaller amount of text. Photos and illustrations are dominant on every page, and textual information is presented in short readable sections. Rather than being divided by types of dinosaurs, this book is in four general sections - world of dinosaurs, living body, senses and behavior, and death of the dinosaurs. A glossary lists many of the new words they will encounter in this book. The information is more concise for shorter attention spans, but still includes the DK quality you expect in their reference materials. Your little ones will enjoy just flipping through all of these realistic dinosaur pictures. 128 pgs, hc. ~ Donna
