Jurassic Giants by Jacqueline A Ball opens with a brief overview of the Mesozoic, before delving into the first of six major foci of the book- Tyrannosaurus Rex. The others are Giganotosaurus, Spinosaurus, Allosaurus, Utahraptor, and Sarcosuchus. Each section had a few pages devoted to each dino and how it stacked up to Tyrannosaurus.

My cubs and I read this book together. I loved that Dakotaraptor was mentioned! This is a more recently discovered super raptor like Utahraptor. I didn't particularly like that 'reptile’ kept being used to refer to the dinosaurs. Yes, -saur means lizard, but we are learning more and more that many dinosaurs were warm-blooded, and really fall into a category all their own. Even my cubs called that out. A great book for any dino-loving kids!

***Many thanks to the Netgalley and Quarto Publishing for providing an egalley in exchange for a fair and honest review.

Jurassic Giants T. rex and Other Prehistoric Predators by Jacqueline A. Ball is a book I requested and the review is voluntary. Wow, this book is so awesome! I have looked at and read hundreds of dinosaur books in my time of being a mother and grandmother but this is so terrific! It has everything a kid loving dinosaurs wants to know. If this dinosaur battled that dinosaur what would happen and why? Did T-rex has feathers? It shows the muscles and bones of the dinos, the sight range where kids can understand. Explains what they think a dino might sound like and how they came to that conclusion. There is so much knowledge in here but also the illustrations are super awesome! It looks like you went back in time and are looking at real dinosaurs! I think I want the book just to look at them over and over again. Since I just reviewed an email copy, the hardback copy I believe comes with a skeleton kit. Too cool. My cat would eat it but I would love to get a hardback to put in the living room coffee table! LOVE this book!… (mais)
