Patrick O’Brien

Brief information is placed on open pages with lots of white space to highlight portraits of baby dinosaurs that are seriously cute and seriously funny. The baby T-rex — “tyrant lizard king“ — is placed in a bejeweled royal crown, with a partial view of a huge parent looking down at the fuzzy baby. Additional information and comparative size chart conclude this informative, amusing book. 

Dramatic illustrations depict a range of possible sabertooth cats, likely relatives to the cats that live today in the wild and in people’s homes. How information about these extinct animals has come to light is clearly presented and is sure to pique curiosity.
