This is such a pretty book! I am a dinosaur nerd, and the paleoart here made me really happy! I also really enjoyed all of the historical stories and facts. (I am not an expert, but from what I saw it was correct!) Overall, a delightful read about dinosaurs! I did not expect this book to focus as much on history before dinos as it did, but that was wonderfully done as well.

Thanks to NetGalley, Rachel Ignotofsky, and Clarkson Potter/Ten Speed Press for the chance to read and review. My opinions are my own.

Thank you to NetGalley and Lux for providing me with a digital ARC.

I've been in a dinosaur mood since "Jurassic World Rebirth" came out, so I decided to theme our literacy night around dinosaurs and I'm just trying to study as much on dinosaurs.

Reading this book and viewing it made me feel like a kid all over again. The illustrations are beautiful and captivating; AI could never replace a real artist. Rachel Ignotofsky has done an incredible job weaving the information presented in this text alongside vibrant illustrations. Although there is a lot of information to cover, it never feels like a dull moment. I wish texts like this had been available in my school library. I'm eager to add this book to our library collection!
