Epic dinosaur book alert!!! ? Atlas of Dinosaur Adventures is possibly the best dinosaur book we’ve seen! It really is an atlas and with each turn of the page you get to explore another continent and the dinosaurs which inhabited the landscape. It’s particularly lovely to see a focus on Australia and our dinosaur history .The illustrations by Lucy Letherland are jam packed with detail, giving you such a clear sense of the habitats in which scientists believe each dinosaur lived. In addition to the fabulous illustrations author Emily Hawkins has managed the perfect amount of writing on each page, not too much as to overwhelm but just enough for those dinosaur loving little brains that live to soak up the facts. Suitable for ages 8+. ………….#squishyminnie #kidslit #picturebook #smallbusiness #shopsmall #readaloud #givebooks #bookstagram #nonfiction #dinosaur #bookworm #youngadult #macedonranges #daylesford #castlemaine #bendigo #melbourne #victoria #kyneton #countryvictoria #lucyletherland #emilyhawkins #atlasofdinosauradventures #prehistoric #illustration
