National Geographic Little Kids First Big Book of Dinosaurs (National Geographic Little Kids First Big Books)

This book is great. Beautiful illustrations, lots of information, and fun things to find along the way. My only suggestion would be to have a little map showing where the dinosaur lived in the world on each page with the dinosaur so the child can get a feel for where each dinosaur lived. As it is this info is all separate at the back of book so it's not easily accessible or memorable.This book is authored by a native English speaking author which makes it more understandable for the child.This is probably too much information for a younger child.

Perfect for dinosaur lovers from preschool through elementary school. My preschooler loves looking at the pictures and learning all the names. The facts and information is perfect for your growing kids. I love how the book is organized by Dino size. Pictures are beautiful and there is always more for my kid to discover

This book is great because you can level up or down depending on the child’s age/ability. There are lots of facts but you don’t have to read them all. There is a handy map in the back that shows you where certain dinosaurs lived and also a glossary. But my favorite part is a section dedicated to activity ideas related to the book that parents can do with their kids. This is a lifesaver for long rainy days or even in the summer when parents are running out of things to entertain their kids! Highly recommend. My 6 year old loves it.

My son loves this book. We have had to buy two copies after our youngest ripped out several pages. I love how it breaks down the pronunciation so I can name the dinosaurs for my children. The pictures are very nice. Great book for dino lovers.

My grandson is 4 and LOVES dinosaurs. He is a smart little guy and can pronounce the complicated names with very few mistakes. He takes his book to his parents and tells them all about the dinosaurs pictured. Of course, his parents (my son and daughter-in-law) are not only proud of his intelligence, they indulge is love of dinosaurs. He has curtains and a bedspread printed with dinosaurs. This book is highly recommended for its detailed pictures in color, the careful and accurate explanations of the dinosaur, and the phonetical spelling of their names so a child of any age can learn to pronounce them. Next year, a dinosaur encyclopedia for a child.

Bought for grand daughter but will put it away. Its graphic and scary with some of the pictures.

My three-year-old son has hit the dinosaur stage, so I bought this book to fulfill his curiosity about all the different dinosaurs. We have learned SO, SO much!! This book has the perfect mix of big, vibrant images, fun facts, detailed descriptions of dinosaurs and a very useful key on each page to help kids put the dinosaur's size into perspective and understand what each dinosaur ate, etc...Some very clever things we especially love:1) They've organized it by size. So, chapters are based on small dinosaurs, medium dinosaurs all the way up to gigantic dinosaurs. This is exactly how my son thinks. He wanted to go straight to the huge ones, but it really helped to have all of them in one section.2) The little key on each page often shows the dinosaur next to a human to show the size comparison. My son LOVES seeing that the dinosaurs could have "stepped on Dad" as he puts it It puts it all into perspective for a child.3) They have the pronunciation for each dinosaur on each page. THANK YOU!!! This is a life-saver. It helped me pronounce every dinosaur's name perfectly and teach them all to my son. And I love that at age 3, my son can now talk comfortably about Diplodocus and Brachiosaurus and even Mamenchisaurus. This is all thanks to this book!4) They include something unique and interesting about almost every dinosaur, so it makes it easy to remember them because of these fun little facts.We have a lot of dinosaur books, but this book is the only one that has created a bonding experience between my son and me, and truly educated both of us about dinosaurs. I recommend it again and again. It's phenomenal and it's so reasonably priced!!This would be wonderful for any child from age 3 to age 15. I love it as an adult.

Simple facts and fun read
