Have you ever seen an elephant in a zoo? You know they are very big and can weigh as much as a school bus! Millions of years ago there was a dinosaur on Earth called Brachiosaurus. One Brachiosaurus weighed as much as 17 elephants! Can you imagine how big some dinosaurs must have been? In this book, readers explore a world where dinosaurs roam and learn fascinating facts about dinos along the way.
We have a lot of students who love dinosaur books. This is a very basic and simple book making it great for lower grades. In the book, a boy is suddenly transported to the time of the dinosaurs, giving readers an idea of what it might be like. It is a quick glimpse though because just as fast as he got there, the dinosaurs are suddenly gone. The end of the book gives more information that I wish had been incorporated more into the story.
