This series of six books is for dinosaur enthusiasts and novices alike. It covers dinosaurs living in the six periods that make up the Mesozoic Age, which spanned prehistoric time 227 million years ago to 65 million years ago.

Each book is an illustrated guide to 25 of the best known dinosaurs of that period. Up-to-date information accompanies the highly detailed computer-generated artworks -- big, colorful, lifelike, fill-the-page dinosaurs.

The books open with an illustrated introductory spread that provides background information on the time period in which the 25 dinosaurs lived. The dinosaur spreads bear a brief introduction, information on when and where it lived, its size, and where fossil remains have been found. They also have a shadow icon of an adult, child, or animal (e.g. domestic cat) which indicates the size of the dinosaur.

All dinosaur-loving readers will thrill at the giant and engaging dino artworks. These books are sure to be enjoyed over and over again.

About the Author:

David West is a designer and author with over a thousand projects, including books, to his credit. He is the author of Dinosaurs on My Street.

From School Library Journal:
Gr 3–7—Resembling a pared-down version of DK's single-volume books, each title provides a brief overview of the topic period before profiling 25 dinosaurs from that era. The text details each beast's approximate height and weight, its diet, its time on Earth, its notable physical features, and where fossil remains have been found. The illustrations are all CGI; however, there is a wide range in quality. The inclusion of a figure for size comparison, though smart, is mostly ineffective, as actual measurements are not provided. For the most dinosaur-hungry students only.
