Edison and the Dinosaur Zoo is an excellent YA coming of age story, written by author N.R. Mackie. I had originally bought this for my kids, but found the plot so fun and enjoyable that I wound up reading it myself- and totally falling in love with the story. The book centers around Edison Hope, a teenager who has been offered a dream job at the Dinosaur Zoo. Full of mystety and intrigue, the book is well-written and fast paced, and Mackie has a very visual writing style- I could easily see this being made into a film. Buy it for your young readers (but enjoy it yourself as well). Brilliant, and I anxiously await the sequel.
