What Parents Need to Know
About Encyclopedia Prehistorica : Dinosaurs
Parents need to know that this book is both too delicate, and possibly too scary (on one page the jaws of a T-rex come out at the reader), for young kids. Though thoroughly researched, some of the information presented verbally and pictorially is controversial, though the author is usually careful to indicate this.
