Dinosaur Feathers

★ “Viewers get ringside seats as dinosaurs march past in an evolutionary parade, giving way to their modern avian representatives. . . . A prehistoric progress that takes flight in more ways than one.”—Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review

★ “The clever writing is accompanied by truly stunning illustrations; the dinosaurs, so often portrayed in dull earth tones, almost burst off these pages in a glorious array of colors rendered in exquisitely detailed paintings, and their avian descendants are given the same spectacular treatment. . . . Parents may find themselves with both a budding paleontologist and ornithologist by the time this book is put down.”—Booklist, Starred Review

★  “This nonfiction poetry offering will satisfy young dino enthusiasts and draw in others who will appreciate the rhythm and rhyme, as well as Nolan’s lovely watercolor illustrations. . . . Make room on the shelf for this original addition to your dinosaur collection.”—School Library Journal, Starred Review

“Nolan. . . beautifully pairs a clever rhyming text with luminous watercolors to express, for very young readers, the evolutionary link between several-million-year-old dinosaurs and modern-day birds”—The Horn Book
