Praise
An engrossing blend of fact and fiction.
—Publishers Weekly
Be warned: may cause a severe outbreak of dinophilia among middle-grade readers.
—The New York Times
Dinosaurology mixes excellent information with an Edwardian-style story. As with other works in the series, interactive elements such as flaps, pull-outs, packets of glitter, and shiny relia add three-dimensional interest. The illustrations, both in full color and archival black and white, are appealing and informative.
—School Library Journal
Yellowed pages studded with notes, maps, drawings and lift-the-flap extras detail the boy’s adventures and bring to life many prehistoric creatures, remains and encounters. This fictional account is an entertaining way to learn a lot of facts, including a brief history of paleontology, dinosaur characteristics and behavior, plus a great deal about popular prehistoric creatures not classified as true dinosaurs, such as the Megalodon, Ichthyosaurus and Pterodactyl.
—BookPage Children’s Corner
Engaging… Highly enlightening… Dinosaurology stretches across time to highlight anachronistic-for-1907 facts that illuminate as they entertain.
—Metro Philadelphia
