review 1: My toddler grabbed this off the shelf at the library and threw it in our bag of books to take home. I think he finds the bold and rather maniacal-looking dinosaur pictures appealing, and I don't blame him. They are pretty funny to look at. This book would be best for a true dino enthusiast, as there are some pretty specific dinosaurs featured in the book. What happened to the basic brontosaurus and tyrannosaurus rex of my youth? The only dinosaurs I actually recognized from this book were the pterodactyls, the velociraptors, and the stegosaurus. Clearly, kids are getting smarter about paleontology!
review 2: Fantastic dinosaur counting book that counts down from 10 to zero. Not many counting books include the number zero. The addendum does offer dinosaur name p
... moreronunciations, which are helpful. I would have preferred the pronunciations on the pertaining page. Don't let dino names stop you from sharing this fantastic book. If you stumble over the names, try it again or seek out a young dinosaur expert.Theme: DinosaursReviewed from a library copy. less

I like Marc Teague's dinosaur illustrations much better.
