Meet the Dinosaurs

Author: Caryl HartIllustrator: Bethan Woollvin

Meet the Dinosaurs is a bright, fluorescent, fun-packed jeep safari journey through the different eras of the dinosaurs, as our narrator and her dog zoom through mud packed swamps & leafy jungles. We are introduced to a huge array of creatures including Brontosaurus & Stegosaurus in the Jurassic Era, then it’s on to the Cretaceous, (to avoid being eaten by an Allosaurus!) where there are even more dinosaurs to learn about. A quick zoom past the T-Rex while the Pterodactyls fly overhead, then it’s time to head back home to think about all the amazing facts we’ve learned along the way.

This colourful, fact-filled book is the perfect exploration of the pre-historic world of the dinosaurs, which will be loved by both existing young fans and those new to these creatures alike. Hart’s rhyming tale is creatively accompanied by the glorious colours of Woollvin’s illustrations, and the back pages give a wonderful easy-to-understand history of life stretching back 2,500 million years ago to the present day.

There are 3 other titles in this series to look out for, featuring the planets, the oceans and weather. A definite must for all school and home library shelves.
