Children's ✦ Penny’s Take 📱 Kindle
Feathered Dinosaurs
Brenda Z. Guiberson · 2016
76/100
👍 Worth It
Guiberson brings genuinely interesting, then-cutting-edge feathered-dinosaur science to life, and William Low's textured paintings are a real treat to look at. There's one sloppy terminology slip a reviewer caught — calling fossil scientists 'archaeologists' instead of paleontologists — but it doesn't sink an otherwise well-crafted, wide-appeal book.
