Synopsis
If Ankylosaurus were alive today, you might be able to ride it to school—after all, it was bigger than a school bus. And if Diplodocus was on your basketball team, you’d always be sure to win the game; his body would stretch the length of the court! In this fact- and fancy-filled book about dinosaurs, Bernard Most shows just how the largest of these prehistoric creatures would measure up in today’s child’s world. A six-page foldout helps show how big the biggest dinosaur really was.
Children's Literature
As in The Littlest Dinosaurs, Where To Look For A Dinosaur, A Dinosaur Named After Me and other related titles, the astute author/artist tickles young readers' funnybones with a blend of fact, fancy, and not-so-nonsensical speculation that simultaneously teaches and stirs imaginations. Let your youngsters "Get to Know Bernard Most" through the 20-minute video that shows him and school children talking about his work.
