Why read it?

1 author picked Dinosaurs a Children's Encyclopedia as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The books so far are more for adults than children, although many children show remarkable powers of reading and learning with any dinosaur book. But this one is aimed at children, and it’s comprehensive and up-to-date.

Dinosaur fans love lists and catalogues, and they want a book that has everything. This is probably the best such book, and it packs in a huge amount of material into its 300 pages.

From Michael's list on dinosaurs from a paleontologist.
