A parent would reach for this book when their child's interest in dinosaurs has shifted from simply naming them to wanting to understand how they actually lived and breathed. It is the perfect choice for the transition from 'dinosaur fan' to 'young scientist,' as it uses clear, anatomical comparisons to help children relate a dinosaur's body to their own. By examining fossils as clues to internal biology, the book fosters deep analytical thinking and scientific curiosity. Sandra Markle treats the subject with sophisticated simplicity, making complex concepts like digestion, skeletal structure, and sensory perception accessible for the 6 to 10 age range. While the focus is on anatomy, the underlying emotional theme is wonder at the natural world and the thrill of discovery. It is an excellent resource for children who crave factual depth and want to understand the 'why' and 'how' behind prehistoric life.
