a hundred prehistoric animals and plants to spot on every double-page,
get ready for hours of serious fun. Find ferocious Tyrannosaurus
in a tangles Jurassic forest, and spot packs of deadly velociraptors
hunting their prey across sandy plains. You won't want to stop
searching until you've found them all. (back cover)

Because
this book contains a plethora of illustrations of various types
of dinosaurs and their habitats, it can help students develop
their science vocabulary. The Shared Reading approach works well
with this series, as the teacher can sit with a group of 5 students
while studying certain features of the book. Alternatively, students
can work in pairs to discuss the content in order to develop academic
language and literacy. Introduce other related books from our
library to your dinosaur unit. See The Dinosaurs
of Waterhouse Hawkins by Barbara Kerley and Time
Flies by Eric Rohmann
