You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. I am no dinosaur expert, so for a starting/entry point this felt like a lot of detailed information that I’m sure a lot the children would get a lot from the book/images the older they get/can read and study more independently.

With artwork from Chris Wormell, accompanied by expertly written text, step inside the pages of this beautiful book to discover galleries of dinosaurs, expertly curated to bring you the experience of a fascinating exhibition from the comfort of your own home. There is so much interesting information that isn't padded out by waffle to make a really lovely book that captures the interest of all ages. Chris has written and illustrated many children's books and most recently gained recognition for the cover illustration of the award-winning bestselling H is for Hawk , by Helen Macdonald, as well as for Philip Pullman's La Belle Sauvage: The Book of Dust Volume One .

I like that there is the junior edition since my son is only 5 And the standard version would probably have a bit too much info for him to ingest all at once. Why any person would choose to watch TV or play computer games rather than read a glorious book like this is (absolutely) beyond me. It suits most ages, the young who flip through and look at the great pictures to the older who can read all the details about there favourite dinosaurs. The book concludes with a look at some animals generally thought of as dinosaurs but which are not in the dinosaur family.

Aspiring paleontologists of 9+could not find a more handsome guide than the giant Dinosaurium, written with clarity and sophisticated information by Lily Murray, and illustrated in impressive detail with Chris Wormell's phenomenal woodcuts. I bought it for my son's Christmas, It was delivered in less than a week and it came in perfect condition. It will transport you millions of years back in time to discover the largest and most ferocious land animals that ever lived - the dinosaurs.From Animalium and Botanicum to Historium and Dinosaurium there is a book for everyone to discover and explore. The Dinosaurium gallery houses an extraordinary collection of Mesozoic monsters, wonderfully illustrated by Chris Wormell.

With specially written text for younger readers, step inside to explore the incredible world of dinosaurs. This comprehensive book is beautifully illustrated and is a favourite in our house and not just with our son. We bring that to life here at Conscious Craft by offering you the best natural toys and craft materials we can find. It is fascinating, also includes relevant non-dinosaurs and information about extinction and most helpful of all is the detailed index at the end, so you can also ‘dip in’ to the book for information. Dinosaurium features a wide range of dinosaurs from the most-loved Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus Rex to lesser-known species such as Coelophysis and Tsintaosaurus.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. It starts out with a branching tree (cladogram) showing the current understanding of dinosaur species' ancestries. We have a couple other books by this company, and like those this is nice quality with great images.
