Dinosaur Babies is a level 2 reader that it is more advanced than others in this category from the same publishing house. That is perfectly normal and expected as even I have trouble reading Deinonychus. For a kid who loves dinosaurs, it would not be a problem to see a picture of a triceratops and say the word without reading it. But you can still go over the word and "chunk it" or "sound it out".The illustrations in this reader look like what you would find in a textbook. This is appropriate for a non-fiction reader but younger kids may not want to reach for the book as often. On the other hand, the book first sparked a conversation when my son noted that the T. rex depicted did not look like most other T. rex pictures he has seen, nor does it look like his plastic dinosaurs. I vaguely remembered that some dinosaurs were believed to have feathers. We researched and now we know that T. rex is believed to have been covered in feathers, particularly the baby T. rex. This is a great way to start understanding that science changes over time as new evidence is discovered and what we know is updated accordingly. I am very pleased that these books are up to date with current scientific understanding.As a separate activity after reading we built a habitat for a herbivore with nest using a plastic dinosaur and playdough in a shoe box (there’s an idea for a rainy/sick day).
Children will love the pictures and the simple explanation of how baby dinosaurs are hatched. Book also explores the different types of dinosaurs, diets and general daily life. Especially appreciate how loving and protective the dinosaur parents are toward their young.
love these books, great price, kids walks away learning something, parent feels good about reading, then one day child reads themselves, price is fantastic-keep making many book-different subjects-really enjoy learning along with my daughter
Great book, my three year old daughter loves dinosaurs and really likes the pictures. The names for some of the dinosaurs are harder for me to pronounce then her. I like the interesting facts they give in the book.
My two-year old was confusing pictures of alligators with dinosaurs so I wanted to find a friendly introduction to dinosaurs for her. This book was perfect. She loves listening to the story about the baby dinosaurs and how they grow. There are nice illustrations that aren't as flashy/busy as some of the books for older kids. The print is big and it seems like it would be a good book for beginning readers as well.
Bought this for my 4 year old grandson who's "dinosaur crazy". We both love it! Great book, great service. I would use this vendor, and recommend this wonderful book to anyone.
The book appears to be excellent for the beginning reader. The subject matter should hold interest well and the illustrations are excellent!
My three boys LOVE dinosaurs! This book is great for kids of all ages who love dinosaur facts!
