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.
