Dinosaur Books For Kids: Dinosaur Alphabet Soup is a great way for primary grade children (ages 8 and under) to learn the letters of the alphabet and discover some amazing dinosaurs all at the same time. Unlike many other dinosaur books for children, this ebook is presented in a fun-filled "game play" format, where the learner interacts with the book as they read about some amazing dinosaurs (each with names beginning with a different letter of the alphabet) and then use the hints provided to attempt to guess what the dinosaur may have looked like from a set of dinosaur images presented. This dinosaur picture book has been evaluated using the Flesch-Kincaid readability test and found to have a grade level score average of 1.84. This indicates that this dinosaur book would be best suited for children in grades 1 to 3 with only minimal parent help required. Hopefully you and your child will agree that this is one of the best dinosaur books for kids to help them learn the alphabet.
Over a hundred and fifty million years ago - a span of time so big that it's 30,000 times longer than all of recorded human history - giant animals walked the world. These huge beasts were both plant-eaters and meat-eaters, and there was a whole ecosystem with enormous animals in it. In this book, you'll learn all about what made this massive giant great--from what they looked like and ate to where they lived and what they did all day.

Discover Amazing Dinosaur Fun Facts, Funny Duck-billed Dinosaurs to the Weird Bone-headed Dinosaur Dinosaurs may be prehistoric animals that have been extinct for
millions of years, but that does not make them any less funny and
weird. Almost like walking with the dinosaurs we will discover
dinosaur fossils, eggs, tracks and even what dinosaur names mean.
Exploring dinosaur bones from around the earth, we will see
dinosaur pictures of the T Rex, raptor and more. Like the dinosaur
that was so tall, it could look into a window on the sixth
floor Amazing Dinosaur Pictures and Facts Delivers Bigtime - I got
this book to keep my 10 year old grandson occupied for a while and
off the xbox or wii. Little did I know it would keep both of us
occupied. I rarely see him as excited and engaged as he was turning
each page and finding the next interesting fact. He is an excellent
reader but he doesn't share with me after he reads a book usually.
I could barely get a word in as he shared page after page. We had
the longest discussion we've ever had I think. It aroused his
curosity and he started asking questions, some that we'll have to
look up later.LOL I know this is one book we will read and discuss
again. I highly recommend it and my grandson does too.
Hi and a very warm welcome to "Dinosaurs." I'm one of those people who loves to hear about extraordinary facts or trivia about anything. They seem to be one of the few things my memory can actually recall. I'm not sure if it's to do with the shock or the "WoW" factor but for some reason my brain seems to store at least some of it for a later date. I've always been a great believer in that whatever the subject, if a good teacher can inspire you and hold your attention, then you'll learn Now I'm not a teacher but the system I've used in previous publications on Kindle seems to work well, particularly with children. This Dinosaur edition includes a selection of those "WoW" facts combined with some pretty awesome pictures, if I say so myself At the end there is a short "True or False" quiz to check memory recall and to help cement some of the information included in the book. Don't worry though, it's a bit of fun but at the same time, it helps to check your understanding. Please note that if you're an expert on dinosaurs then you may not find anything new here. If however you enjoy hearing sensational and extraordinary trivia and you like looking at some great pictures then I think you'll love it. Let me know what you think using the review page section. I hope you enjoy the show Matt.

As children, we are captivated by stories of huge fantastical creatures, such as the wooly mammoth and the pterodactyl. The prevailing wisdom is these species are long extinct, but new evidence uncovered by author Gerald McIsaac casts doubt on these widely held assumptions. McIsaac gathered stories from the elders of the First Nation-those who were formerly referred to as Indians, Native Americans, or Aboriginals. First Nation elders provided McIsaac with detailed descriptions of six species long thought to be extinct. These species include the Devil Bird, the Hairy Elephant, the Wilderness Wolf, the Rubber-Faced Bear, the Lake Monster, and Sasquatch. In Bird from Hell, McIsaac separates fact from fiction by comparing eyewitness accounts of these species with scientific opinion concerning their identity. His conclusion is that these huge species are not extinct, but he needs assistance in gathering evidence to substantiate this claim. By following the simple directions provided in Bird from Hell, you can help prove these various species still exist.
