Reviews

A catchy introduction in this book from the "First Graphics" series grabs kids' attention and gets them to think about how we know about these creatures that lived millions of years before people. . . .All books in the series make excellent supplements to science lessons and are related to many common core curriculum goals. They are especially attractive to reluctant and emerging readers because the text is simple and the colorful illustrations offer clues to what is written.-- "Children's Literature Comprehensive Database Newsletter"
Each of these easy-to-read books answer questions often asked by children. The information is presented in a way that young readers can understand. There are usually several full-color drawings on each double-page spread which resemble the layout of graphic novels. There are generally one or two sentences about each picture, often accompanied by a caption. One of the features especially helpful for developing readers is that the last picture asks a question which is then answered on the next page. Recommended.-- "Library Media Connection"
Wonderful quality cartoonish illustrations are delightful and add humour to the factual text.-- "Back to Books blog"
