(Ben SteelmanWilminton Star-News2005-12-18)This is it: the book on dinosaurs everyone has been waiting for.... The book that every kid with a passion for dinosaurs wished existed when they first got the bug. Understand, though: The Complete Guide to Prehistoric Life is not geared at kids. It's just that, given the subject matter, it's pretty much guaranteed that young males will be especially touched by this book.... The authors didn't come to this project without considerable credentials. Both were involved with the BBC's Walking With Dinosaurs.... It was amazing. Though The Complete Guide to Prehistoric Life is not a companion to that television series, it brings the same sort of magic... Each alphabetized entry offers information on individual types of dinosaur as well as rich and beautiful full color "photos" of the dinosaurs under discussion in various types of dinosauric activity. This is an amazing book, filled with magic and knowledge, a truly winning combination. (Lincoln ChoJanuary Magazine2005-01-01)
