Review
“‘Dinosaur George’ has written a delightful and informative book that introduces young readers to the exciting world of carnivorous dinosaurs. Opening with a brief outline of theropods and an instructive guide to relevant geologic time, Blasing’s book beautifully illustrates and describes 30 of the most fascinating meat-eating dinosaurs who lived during the Mesozoic Era. I hope this is only the first installment in a Dinosaurs! My First Book About… series!” ―Alyson A. Brink, PhD, Assistant Professor of Geology, University of Southern Mississippi
