Praise for this book

"Like the original edition, this book introduces young children to dinosaurs through a visit to a natural history museum. It's the new illustrations that make [it] worth purchasing; Aliki's clear, full-color pictures provide just enough detail to maintain young children's interest without confusing them. An excellent introduction to paleontology." --"SLJ."
