Thomas the T. rex is filled with colorful, expressive water color paintings that perfectly illustrate the kids’ activities at the dig. This is a fascinating and inspiring book for junior scientists age 7 and up. –Midwest Book Review
Discovering the ancient remains of dinosaurs is a remarkable experience. This book gives a glimpse of such experience and a source of inspiration to children who aspire to one day find their own dinosaur. –Dr. Luis M. Chiappe, Director of the Dinosaur Institute, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County
Thomas the T. rex is a charming, beautifully illustrated book about the discovery of one of the most scientifically important T. rex fossils ever found. Unusual among books for young audiences, it gives readers a detailed look at the process by which a dinosaur skeleton goes from a chance discovery in the field to a dramatic museum display. Thomas the T. rex is sure to delight and inform budding scientists everywhere. –Matthew C. Lamanna, Ph.D., Assistant Curator, Carnegie Museum of Natural History
