Lucy Wilson · 2026
🎙 Narrated by Dan Absalonson
54/100
👎 Skip It

This is straightforward trivia — 51 bite-sized dinosaur facts with no narrative thread, built for kids who want shareable factoids rather than a story. It does the job it sets out to do but doesn't aim higher, and Dan Absalonson's fact-delivery narration sounds functional rather than something you'd specifically seek out.
