Publisher Description:
In today's world, there are few animals that weigh in at a ton or more. But millions of years ago, massive creatures roamed the earth. This fascinating and educational coloring book focuses on the bigger, taller, and heavier mega dinosaurs that scientists are constantly bringing to light. Along with recently discovered species, it features old favorites like the mighty Tyrannosaurus rex. Each of the 44 illustrations includes descriptive captions plus a small silhouetted image of the dinosaur that compares its size to that of a human being.
These high-quality, informative coloring books are just right for accompanying a unit study. Subjects are nicely detailed. Generally, illustrations on the inside covers depict the natural colors if you want to produce a realistic finished product. Very brief captions are nonetheless instructive. After coloring through a book, we're certain you'll be able to more easily identify specimens when you see them. Some books, like Rocks and Minerals, have several pages of worthwhile information in the front, including a discussion of different types of rocks and minerals, how to start collecting rocks, classifying rocks, and specific tests for identifying them. The My Horse coloring book has an introductory four pages on horse anatomy and features, then contains generous captions that form a mini-course in identifying, classifying, riding, and caring for horses. Our favorite medium is colored pencil. Since we offer a selection of quality colored pencils, we thought we'd lay in a generous supply of our favorite educational coloring books as well!
