This was a fun game for me! I am not a kid-dinosaur fan and I do not know much dinosaur trivia, so I learned a bit about some animals I thought I already knew about, and lots of facts (and suppositions from scientists) about those dinosaurs I had never heard of. As a parent that often has to read aloud, I was grateful for the pronunciation guides after each long dinosaur name. I have to say that the guessing game format was a lot of fun. My favorite page featured the Pteranodon because I felt clever to know the name of the animal, only to be surprised on the next page to learn that it is not actually a dinosaur!
The collage illustrations feature photographs underneath the textured animals. All the animals are bright and interesting, and it does not take much guessing to determine that kids that love dinosaurs will love this book! The bonus is that there is much to learn from it as well.
Note: I received a digital copy of Dinosaurs from Head to Tail from the publisher for review consideration.
