Eleven different dinosaurs are introduced to young readers, complete with basic facts and a pronunciation guide. Just the right amount of information is presented, in a format that is more advanced than most preschool picture books about dinosaurs. This is the perfect "stepping stone" for children who are both learning to read and searching for knowledge about these extinct behemoths.
