Forget everything your dinosaur-obsessed child thinks they know, because while they've been busy being an expert on T-rex and Triceratops, there's been a dinosaur with a built-in megaphone quietly waiting for its moment alongside over 80 of prehistory's most gloriously strange creatures. Funny, surprising, and almost certainly guaranteed to result in your child ambushing you with facts at dinner for the foreseeable future. We love it because: Over 80 prehistoric oddities, each with vital stats, a scale diagram, the Latin name (and crucially, how to say it), and a rundown of their most spectacularly strange features. Philip Bunting's illustrations are hilarious and full of personality, making even the most obscure Cretaceous weirdo feel like someone you'd want to meet. The facts are genuinely eye-popping, the jokes are actually funny, and the whole thing has the kind of energy that makes children pick it up again and again. It works brilliantly as a dip-in-and-out book, a bedtime book, a long-car-journey book, and a loudly-read-aloud-to-whoever-will-listen book. A fantastic choice for children who think they've already learned everything there is to know about dinosaurs (they haven't, and they're going to love finding that out).
