La información que nos aporta este libro va de lo general a lo particular. Al tratarse de un atlas visual su punto fuerte es, y no podía ser de otra manera, el impresionante trabajo de ilustración de Chris Wormell. Al final del libro nos dicen que el ilustrador jamás ha recibido formación artística, cosa que resulta casi imposible de creer teniendo este libro en la mano. Los datos que nos aportan están recientemente actualizados, lo que significa que las ilustraciones presentan el aspecto más fidedigno posible sobre estas criaturas. En lo personal, me apasiona la existencia de los dinosaurios con plumas y he gozado de lo lindo embobada frente a ilustraciones como, por ejemplo, esta:

Hluboko v podzemním hvozdu, jen kousek od háje obývaného dryádami, stojí mramorový palác minotauřího krále vládnoucího zástupům gnollů, ještěřích lidí a psohlavců. Poslechněte si, proč legendární legendární 40 let starý dungeon Caverns of Thracia dodnes slouží jako učebnicový příklad dobrého level designu.

If you've ever watched a young boy play with his dinosaurs, you know that they absolutely love the critters and really "get" the ferocious nature of the beasts. This book will fascinate the young child simply for the pictures alone. The older age 8 to 12 child - male or female - will find the information clearly worth delving into. As a reference tool, this book will provide material that will surely lend credence to the child's presentation. As a book to peruse and absorb, it will provide hours of enthrallment and obsession. Thank you for visiting Story Snug John and congratulations on the publication of The Wondrous Dinosaurium.What or who inspired you to become a writer?Ha, I’ve actually never thought about it. It would be one of the more docile ones for sure. Perhaps Argentinosaurus. I’d love to see what the biggest dinosaur ever (that we know of) looked like in reality.

Dinosaurium: Welcome to the Museum, while designated for the age 8 to 12 child, utilizes information and vocabulary that might be beyond the realm of this age group making the books fitting upward to adults. Introduction of vocabulary and scientific information can begin at any age and more is often absorbed than imagined possible. However, the targeted age 8 to 12 students may find some of the text daunting but we should never underestimate the learning ability and the absorption value that a challenging book has for anyone. And no, this is not your toddlers lovely picture book. This is a book that provides insight into the species that roamed the Earth long ago. We already knew each other, so we could have discussed the project, but I wanted the story to benefit from Steve’s unique perspective and that might not have happened if I attempted to influence him. My only request was that he didn’t make any dinosaurs up – they all had to be based on real dinosaurs. This exhibition looks at the long history of our relationship with dinosaurs, from ancient legends of mythical winged beasts in the deserts of central Asia, to the creatures brought to life in Jurassic Park.You are a member of The Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI).
