Free Kindle Dinosaurs From Head To Tail ebooks Download
From one dinosaur's head to another's tail, this informational picture book challenges readers to guess which prehistoric creature each of eight different body parts belongs to. (For example, ?What dinosaur had claws like this??) For each question, the answer is given on the following spread, with an overview that includes the name of the dinosaur, an illustration of the entire animal in its habitat and facts about the featured body part, such as why it looked the way it did and how scientists believe it was used. The colorful and eye-catching collage illustrations by Kwanchai Moriya offer a unique and friendly approach to the ever-popular subject of dinosaurs. The creatures are a mix of the popular (Tyrannosaurus) and the lesser-known (Therizinosaurus) and allow children the satisfaction of guessing some correctly while learning about others. A pronunciation guide accompanies the first mention of each dinosaur's name. There is also a bonus spread at the end of the book containing a quick look at seven more intriguing dinosaurs. Balancing a captivating picture book experience with just the right level of information, it is an ideal bridge between a basic concept book and a detailed encyclopedic book. It would work perfectly in a group lesson on prehistoric creatures or on animal bodies, with the highly engaging, interactive guessing-game component providing a way of enlivening the classroom discussion. It could also be used individually by higher-level readers as an interesting nonfiction choice or a reference book.

Loved, loved, loved this book! Even though most children's books are hard not to give full ratings to, there have been some for me that fell short. I have a certain criteria for children's books. (1) They must be engaging and easy to read. (2) They must have educational or moralistic value to some degree. (3) They must have illustrations that inspire imagination. This book had it all. I loved the descriptions of the dinosaurs, they were short, to the point and interesting. The illustrations were fun and so well put together using a combination of fabrics, paper and natural resources. I just love that kind of creativeness. What really made me happy was to see more dinosaurs add to the end with more short descriptions to entice children to do research on their favorites. This is one of the best books for this age group that I've ever seen! An easy 5 Ravens!
This is one of the better dinosaur books I have found for my 4 year old. I checked it out from the library and ended up buying a copy because my sons loves it so much. It also has a decent amount of factual information, making it more interesting for the adult and child. Great book to read to 3-5 year old.
We received this book via NetGalley to give an honest review.K loves dinosaurs so I knew he would love reading this one. You get to guess as to what dinosaur is being shown. You get a tail then a leg or shoulder and other body parts and if you haven't guess by those clues then you get to find out what dinosaur. K had a blast guessing and was so excited when he got them right.When the dinosaur is revealed you get a little bit of information about the dinosaur and you get to learn how to pronounce the names.The illustrations were okay there was a dinosaur or two that the faces looked a bit weird but if you can by pass that then you have a good book and pictures on your device.This is a good book for the ages of maybe 5 on up
I won this book on a giveaway on Good Reads. What a colorful and informative book about dinosaurs for young kids. It really grabs your attention. I loved it and I can't wait to give it to my 3 year old granddaughter. She will love reading it over and over again.
