Review
Pirates and dinosaurs are both popular topics for young readers. This said, a book filled with pirate dinosaurs is bound to be a hit! The dinosaur pirates are on the hunt for buried treasure. But they had better watch out, because a scary pirate ship filled with raptors is on the lookout for treasure too! Great as an interactive read aloud during story time. The detailed illustrations will entertain young dinosaur experts who will want to identify all the various types of dinosaurs. The descriptive text is rollicking and engaging. There is just the right amount of repetition for beginning readers. The full page, colorful illustrations are done in watercolor and pencil and are full of details to entertain! The text is worked right into the illustrations on each page.
A nice addition to any library.
Overall Book Score: very good
