Review: The one to get to start! - Has had every fossil we have found so my son can identify them easily. Great basic fossil book for the budding paleontologist to have on hand. He has already put post it markers on all the pages of fossils he has found. And logged them in another book with photos so people who come over can identify and read in the book about his finds. (did I mention he is 7) Reading level obviously a bit higher than when could read when he got it, but great photos. Has been very helpful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great pictures; Useful guide
*by C***H on December 2, 2005*

I bought this book as a gift for my cousin. Paired with few small fossils, it makes a great gift for any youngster. It doesn't feature EVERY fossil out there, but rather offers a vivid example of major items. It shows a picture of each-DK Books are great for pictures, I highly recommend their travel guide series--along with an artist's reproduction of what the animal may have looked like in life, and pertinent info about each. I would buy it again, and in fact, I wish I had ALL the DK Books, because every one I've ever seen was great.
