This is one of the coolest books we own. It was a gift from my Brother Drew.

Now dinosaurs are cool and all on their own, but check out the pop-up-ness of this book!!!!

Every page is like that! There's a main big pop-up that opens up when you open that page, but then there are all these little extra pagelets on each one that have additional text and more pop-ups! And there are often 2 or 3 layers of pagelets, so TONS of pop-up dinos. If you go to Amazon.com and look at their page about Encyclopedia Prehistorica Dinosaurs: The Definitive Pop-Up, you can see what I mean. They recommend it for ages 4-8 or grades k-3 or 4, but I think you'd have to have quite a careful 4- or 5-year old to let them look at it on their own, and older kids would still like the intricacy of the pop-ups.


And no, Pumpkin's not allowed to touch this book yet.
