Summary: Dinosaurs! The Biggest, Baddest, Strangest, and Fastest
Review: Dinosaurs! The Biggest, Baddest, Strangest, and Fastest written by Howard Zimmerman is a short, but fully illustrated book of some very unusual dinosaurs. Just as in the title of the book you will find some different looking dinosaurs, and these dinosaurs were found all over the earth's surface.

Your favorite monsters of the Mesozic are accounted for here. Some seventy-five beautiful illustrations are found in this book. I would rate this book not only for children who have a fascination for dinosaurs, but also adults. There is information reguarding some of the species that wasn't out when I first got interested in dinosauria.

For instance, some the the dinosaurs weithed more than a dozen African elephants, a dinosaur that had claw nearly 3 feet in length, dinosaurs that could run faster than an ostrich, some as small as cats, and of course the famous foot claw of the raptors.

There is a pronunciation guide in this book to help the younger reader to master the dinosaur names. Informantion found about the dinosaurs comes for finds in China, Africa and South America where you'll find a meat-eating dinosaur larger than T.rex.

There is information about each of the dinosaur family, that is the period and area in which they lives, eating habits, peculiar attributes. Also found near the end of the book there is a listings on the World Wide Web for those with computers to follow up on the dinosaurs.

This is a short book, but the information is top notch. If you child like dinosaurs this would be an excellent choice.

Review: First, I must say that I am not related to Mr. Zimmerman. I just want to say that my speech and language impaired daughter is a big dinosaur fan, and when she saw the cover of this book, she was thrilled. I bought it and we have had a wonderful time together reading it. She is so fascinated by all these dinosaurs and I have to compliment Mr. Zimmerman and Mr. Olshevsky for the way they have made the world of dinosaurs accessible to kids--especially kids with learning disabilities. We have had the best time looking at the art and reading the text. This is a truly beautiful book! Thank you so much!

Summary: It`s Incredible!
Review: I am normally interested in bigger,more fact-covering dinosaur books. But here I make an exception. This oversized,full-colour artbook is amazing!It covers all the most extreme dinosaurs and some others too. Finally,we have an updated dinosaur records book. I can give a presentation of it here : the first chapter covers the biggest sauropods (Brachiosaurus and Seismosaurus) and the second chapter has the biggest meat-eaters (T-rex and Giganotosaurus).The third has the raptors,as it treats the most dangerous dinos,and the fourth chapter covers the strangest,such as the 3-foot clawed Therizinosaur and the crested Parasaurolophus. The fourth one covers the spiky armored ones and the next covers the fastest,like Struthiomimus. The last two covers the first dinosaus discovered and the latest ones,like Iguanodon and Cryolophosaurus. The paintings are so inspiring and beautifull that they cannot be described in words. It really gives me inspiration to my own drawings and I imagine the pictures and video caps from a movie screen from a film I wish existed and I would create. I am surprised the price was so low. Normally,I can expect a price of [...] or more. It is now your decision to chose if you want to spend [...] for Dinosaur Imagery or just [...] for this!I have done mine. I get a lot of inspiration and save a lot of money. It is definitly worth the price,only for the paintings.

Review: It's great to finally have a beautiful oversized book on dinosaurs that is up-to-the-minute with the latest paleontoligical information on these ancient beasts. The art and the text will both be enlightening for children and adults who are real dinophiles.

Review: My son loves this book. Great illustrations, lots of cool facts. I think that it is maybe a 4th grade to eighth grade reading level, not 4 yr to 8yr level. It is a little advanced for your average four year old.

Review: This book is great. The illustriations are remarkable and realistic. The reason it didn't get five stars is because it does not list the Spinosaurus. Which is my 4 year old's favorite. Buy it and enjoy
