Educator Review of The World of Dinosaurs - Therizinosaurus

The “World of Dinosaurs” is a set of 22 books that presents the latest information on not only the well-known creatures, but also some of the lesser known (or more recently known) representatives of this group. This high/low series is packed full of information in the form of graphics, including size charts, timelines and labeled maps and illustrations. Text passages are accessible and bolded words are defined in the glossary. Typical nonfiction features include: table of contents, glossary, index, labeled illustrations and more. The best part of these books is the “Get to Know the (insert dinosaur)” near the end of book. This two page spread puts all the relevant information into an easy-to-read, attractive layout. This series is going to be very popular among your dinosaur-loving patrons. It’s actually a perfect book not only for the high/low target audience of grades 3-7; younger students will love delving into the world of dinosaurs in these books as well. Therizinosaurus describes a beaked dinosaur, whose defining feature is its three foot long claws – the longest of any animal that ever lived! This herbivore was large and fossils hav been found in Asia and North America. Its other claim to fame? It was in the 2022 Jurassic World Dominion movie! This dinosaur book will not be on your shelves long. Its engaging content and accessible text make it a popular choice for budding paleontologists.
