Abstract

This is the sort of book that, as a child, I would have loved to have. I would have had to be a Canadian child however, since this book deals solely with Canadian dinosaurs. In 96 pages, the book offers not only a catalogue of different dinosaurs that once lived in what is now Canada, but also tells the story of their discovery. In a lively manner, children are informed about the different aspects of dinosaur research. Comprehensible texts, lots of photographs and small sidesteps in separate textboxes provide insight in the way dinosaurs have been researched from the earliest discoveries to the latest excavations. I particularly like the ‘researcher profiles’ in which important scientists are introduced in just a few, but very to the point lines. Written with a child’s perspective in mind, the book presents dinosaur tracks discovered by children in British Columbia, shows photographs of children participating in excavations in Alberta’s Dinosaur Provincial Park and many more interesting facts.
