How Big Were the Dinosaurs? - Nonfiction: Informational
How Big Were the Dinosaurs?, by Bernard Most, was a great book! This book was written in a child-friendly way that compared the dinosaurs size to objects that the students would be familiar with such as a basketball court or a hen. This made it much easier to picture how big they would be. It also told a fact or two about the dinosaur such as if it was a meat-eater or a plant-eater or a nickname for it. There was a pronunciation guide which proved to be very helpful. Dinosaur names can be hard! I would use this book in my classroom, especially with very young students. I learned a lot and the colorful pictures helped me to understand.
