Reach for this book when your toddler is moving through the phase of wanting to touch everything and has developed an intense fascination with things that are big, loud, and powerful. It is an ideal bridge between play and learning for children who find standard flat pages unengaging and need a physical connection to the subject matter. Author and paleontologist Don Lessem uses a photo essay approach to introduce the legendary Tyrannosaurus rex. While the facts are grounded in real science, the primary draw is the shaped format and the unique rubber cover that mimics the tactile sensation of dinosaur skin. It helps transition a child from seeing dinosaurs as mere toys to understanding them as incredible creatures that once walked the earth, all while satisfying the sensory-seeking needs of the preschool years.
