Perfect for 7 – 9 year olds, Atlas of Dinosaur Adventures is a guide to the prehistoric era and dinosaurs around the world. See a battle between two Triceratops, hide from the terrifying pack-hunting Deinonychus (on which the nightmarish Velociraptors in Jurassic Park were actually based) and watch a baby Pteranodon learn to fly!
Each colourful spread focuses on the behaviour of a particular dinosaur, but there are plenty of other dinos to spot and learn about in the background of each scene too. Maps and fact boxes reveal more information, including the meaning of the dinosaur’s name, its size and its diet.
An ideal gift for any child fascinated by dinosaurs, this is a great addition to Wide Eyed Editions’ Atlas Of series, which also includes animal adventures and miniature adventures!

My son adores this book. Dinosaurs are a passion of his. A delight to read. Love it!
As a long time supporter of the Wide-Eyed Editions Atlas of series, I am very excited to see a new addition has been added to it.
At first I was skeptical about having another dinosaurs book released because of the abundance of choices on the market, but Wide-Eyed Editions is capable of creating its own niche and making this collection extremely desirable. The usual high quality of artwork, and concise text on facts are both easy for young kids and even for adults. I personally own the rest of the book in the series, not intend for my toddler son but for myself, and no one in my household has ever been disappointed. Even my husband who seldom reads for leisure praises each and every book in this series consistently.
Great work, Wide-Eyed Editions! Thanks for letting me to review the excerpt before my actual purchase.
I will post a detail review on social media after finish reading the entire book since the e-gallery version is only a fraction of the actual product.
Although my formatting was not correct, I could still tell that this will be a book that becomes popular with the dinosaur loving crowd. Children who love dinosaurs don't want to know just a little bit, that want depth and this book works at providing some of that depth. I believe children will enjoy paging through this book time and time again.
Very good book for young children. I suggest the book for children of 8+ years old
Whilst I was only provided with a 10 page sampler by the publisher I really enjoyed what I read - it is full of great facts, it has an excellent layout, impressive images and I learnt quite a bit - an ideal purchase or present for dinosaur fans out there!
Read this with my 6-year-old son who is a big dinosaur fan and he really enjoyed learning about the dinosaurs and the great illustrations. He enjoyed some of the comical additions such as the Trex wearing the bib and the Pteranodon's wearing flying gear!
Looked over this one with my two-year old son, who has an abnormal interest in and memory for dinosaur facts. It was still quite a bit over his head, so I'd reccomend it more for a 8+ crowd. Still, interesting facts and colorful illustrations. Would not reccomend an e-reader version, though.
I read this with my son and we found that the information was great, the pictures were right on point with the book, He liked the fact that the whole thing was about dinosaurs.
A book to imagine adventures and learn
This book has an interesting format, poster type, where you can see many environmental and species characteristics, with very specific descriptive notes of the most important information. It addresses recent fossil discoveries that shed new and lesser-known information about these animals. For my son it was a pleasant experience to look into all the details of each scene and imagine the adventures that could have happened while learning.
