Críticas
This is one of those non-fiction children's books that's also suitable for adults.
The simple language is ideal if you're in the mood for a short and concise overview of the dinosaur era. Having read extensive details on this topic, I didn't want to read another in-depth account, so this suited me fine.
Sometimes a picture tells a thousand words, which is ideal when describing creatures long-since extinct. The illustrations in this little book are superb.

Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.
This is not a literary classic, but it certainly is a comprehensive account of everything that ever dipped its toes into the sea. If Jaws gave you nightmares, don’t read the sections about the jellyfish with four human-like eyes, or the blobs of gigantic single cells at the very very bottom. The sex life of some of these things is even worse than their eating habits. So, why am I glad I read it? I write science fiction, and the seemingly infinite variety of these creatures, and the extreme habitats they live in, makes me more sure than ever that my cast of alien characters is perfectly plausible.… (mais)
