Reviews
Children LOVE the 'What on Earth?' format and this is a book that I have used in class frequently. EMILY BEALE - TEACHERS' BOOK AWARDS REVIEW Epic - this is history let out of a box - Daily Telegraph This is a great book and it would make a great birthday or Christmas gift and it would be great as a book to use in schools when covering Dinosaurs.--Angela Milnes TheInspirationalEdit.com
It simply sings to info-philes and visual learners alike. With parallel timelines for all continents, developments on land, sky and sea, more than a thousand illustrations, it is a superlative mastery of design and research, a treat to eye and brain alike. --JUNO Magazine Children LOVE the 'What on Earth?' format. --Teachers' Book Awards Review Epic - this is history let out of a box --Daily Telegraph A strong choice for visual learners and information-seekers. --Publishers Weekly An exciting purchase for libraries looking for high-interest nonfiction that covers both dinosaurs and career interests. --School Libary Journal In this engaging launch to a series of books with fold-out timelines, Eric Eagle, senior librarian of the Eagle-Eyed Explorer Club, is tasked with taking an expedition into prehistory to explore and document dinosaur life. Forshaw, who has illustrated other What on Earth titles, works in an accessible style that blends naturalistic and cartoony details. Clad in classic explorer's attire, Eagle is whisked back in time where dinosaurs roam. Chapters focus on dinosaur identification, diversity, and extinction. Featured are Eagle's Explorer Notes, made to resemble perforated notebook pages, and which feature his identifications of various dinosaurs, as well as insights into topics such as adaptation, dinosaur eggs, and profiles of dinosaur excavators throughout history. The six-foot-long timeline chronicles dinosaur life from the Triassic Period through our current Cenozoic Era. A strong choice for visual learners and information-seekers. Also available: Explorer: Bugs! Ages 7-11. --Publishers Weekly This is a great book and it would make a great birthday or Christmas gift and it would be great as a book to use in schools when covering dinosaurs. --The Inspirational Edit
