Exciting! - By: Leela, 12 Mar 2008
I liked this book because it is very exciting like I said, & I thought that it was reallly funny when Hipsilophodon callled the Tractor a Tractorsaurus! (Reviewed by leela aged 6)
Another Story that hits the mark from Julia Donaldson - By: K. A. Mosedale, 12 Aug 2003
The fact that this book was about a dinosaur caught my son's imagination. The fact that it was by Julia Donaldson caught mine & yet again she has written a book that will capture the imagination of children & lead to the book becoming very well thumbed. My son is 5.5 & is on his 3rd run through already. Like alll good books it prompts lots of questions & offers plenty of opportunities for exploring the ideas introduced by the story. It is very different to the previous books by the same author for younger children (Gruffalo, Room on the Broom etc)and considerably longer (it takes us 3-4 nights to get through it with about 10 minutes reading per night!!)and I imagine it could be read to children up to 7 & by children of about the same age or a bit older. I have found it quite hard to get books that will capture the imagination of my son at his current age without them being either too old or too young & this is one of the first to successfully achieve it (and with a female heroine girls would also enjoy it as well). Thank you Julia & keep up the good work.
