DR. ROBERT T. BAKKER is one of the most respected vertebrate
paleontologists in the world. Often credited with starting the
"Dinosaur Rennaisance," he is Curator of Paleontology at the
Houston Museum of Natural Science.
LUIS V. REY is the winner of the 2008 Lazendorf PaleoArt Award the
most prestigious international award recognizing achievement in
paleontological scientific illustration."
(++++) "Bakker does a fine job of connecting prehistory with young children s world today, by showing how mammals evolved during the age of dinosaurs and then began to dominate the world after dinosaurs were gone--thus explaining how the dinosaur story is really our story, too. The Big Golden Book of Dinosaurs tackles a large and complex subject in clear, understandable form, and hopefully will serve as an introduction for yet another generation of young people to prehistoric creatures that continue to fascinate so many of us today. --INFODAD.COM, 10/31/2013"
