This is a great book for all the dinosaur lovers out there! It is full of fun illustrations and facts about every type of dinosaur. There is a double page on each type (the raptors, the leaf eating dinosaurs, the armoured dinosaurs etc.) It is full of humour and I particularly liked the dinos wall of fame! This would have be a perfect book to have in school for EYFS/KS1 children to learn more about dinosaurs. Thank you to NetGalley and Bloomsbury Publishing for this ARC.

I thought this was a terrific book for children aged 3-7 on dinosaurs. Great facts in a fantastic format. Likely to be read again and again and again!

A fun, fact filled book for those who love all things dinosaur. This is a fact book as opposed to a story. The book divides the types of dinosaurs into groups such as the leaf loving Veggies, the gentle giants, the raptors, dino fossils and more. The pages are filled with facts and colourful illustrations. My daughters and 4 and 6 think this book is great, as dinosaur fans already, this is topping up their dino knowledge.

My little girl absolutely loves dinosaurs, so I was delighted to be given the opportunity to review Do You Love Dinosaurs? with her. The beautiful illustrations captivated her immediately, she wanted to flip the pages of the book and look at them all before we even started to read. I love the inclusion of so many facts in a book for young children, and I know as she grows she will understand more and more. It's brilliant to see that the vocabulary isn't dumbed down in any way, my little girl loved repeating the names and the technical words as I read them to her. Her favourite page was the Tyrannosaurus Rex page, and she loves the Dino Hall of Fame! I will be highly recommending to friends with dinosaur-obsessed little ones like mine!

This is a real treat for Dino fans. Young and old will delight in the bold and colourful illustrations and enjoy the informative text.

The information is grouped into easy to absorb colourful double page spreads, groupings inc. Veggies and Dino sports day!

A real joy of a book and I will certainly be buying a copy as soon as it is published. The children in my class loved it and it will get lots of use once they can have a physical copy in their hands.

This is a gem of a book for young fans of dinosaurs! Bold and colourful illustrations will appeal to all readers and the information is factual and informative.

It looks more of a picture book than a non fiction and this appeals to me as some NF books tend to be a bit more bland in colour and illustrations, especially when it comes to dinosaurs. We need more dino books of this style!

Grouping the dinos into categories helps readers navigate the beasts to learn who was similar and what their differences might be. Readers will have fun exploring each page to learn more. The layout of the book is brilliant and I could pore over the pages for hours on end.

I will definitely be buying several copies of this book!

Do You Love Dinosaurs is a vibrant picture book bursting at the seems with facts about dinosaurs. The dinosaurs are grouped together for the purposes of providing info about them into groups such as ‘Gentle Giants’ and ‘The Leaf Loving Veggies’. The illustrations are quirky and fun whilst also portraying all the dinosaurs key features. Any dinosaur loving child will get lots of enjoyment from this book whilst also learning lots of facts about dinosaurs and it can be read as a storybook or referred to again and again as a fact checker.
