I loved that it helped define things throughout and highlighted people who contributed to the field. The illustrations are fun and engaging. My five year old was busy asking questions through the entire book."--Asbjorn.Academy "LibraryThing" (10/2/2021 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"This book is an awesome mix of information and activities! Do I want to fossilize stuff in jello like bugs get encased in amber? Yup, sure do. <br> This is a great introductory book with pretty diverse characters, and could be a great way for those readers that like hands-on activities to either extend learning or engage them. There are paleontologists of note in the back, which are mostly white-passing folks, but I appreciate the extra individuals to check out for the extra interested reader."-- "The Tiny Activist" (4/16/2021 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"This would be a fantastic book for dinosaur-obsessed youngsters looking to read something more in-depth without overwhelming them with huge blocks of text. The glossary will allow them to work through the new subject-specific language themselves, building confidence along with the knowledge. I was really impressed with this Little Leonardo book and know I'll be picking up more of them in the future."--Sophie Brown "GeekMom" (3/2/2021 12:00:00 AM)<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Jeff Bond</b> has been working with dinosaurs since 1992.
