From Booklist
Gr. 2-4. This new edition of an older book from the Step into Reading series updates both the text and the illustrations. In addition to using the correct term, Apatosaurus, for brontosaurus, the new version incorporates several discoveries, interpretations, and other changes in the field since the first edition (1988) and acknowledges the death of featured fossil finder "Dinosaur Jim" Jensen. Although the book still lacks an index, it provides a simple and very readable historical account of finding and analyzing dinosaur fossils. A good choice for updating or enhancing science collections. Carolyn Phelan
