Look @, read about, and play with the Mega Beasts

Mammoths, saber-toothed tigers, and the hyracotherium are all animals of unusual proportion(some big and some small) and they all came after the dinosaurs. Unfortunately, they're also extinct. We know what that means - we can't visit them at the zoo. But, we can see wonderful pop-up images of them. And thanks to Sabuda's thrilling papercraft skills and Reinhart's concise and insightful writing we can interact with those images in a tactile and personal way.

As with Sabuda's other books this one doesn't have a plot - it has facts. It's more like an index to Mega Beasts than a story about them. And it seems kids or adults don't mind a bit. The pictures are very colorful, the writing is creative, and the book is most original.

Every parent knows the enjoyment from hearing a kid say `Wow! Look at that.' - and this book is full of wow-moments. Who can't be amazed at the Mega Beasts? They were here before us. What do they have to tell us about this planet we live on? Consider them here in the form of pop-up art.

The most phenomenal pop-up book ever

Our 6-year-old daughter isn't a major dinosaur fan, but Encyclopedia Prehistorica Mega-Beasts captured her imagination. The layout of this book makes it impossible to be bored by the science. There are small books nested within this volume that tell interesting stories, and the big creatures that pop out in the center of each full page are thrilling. I hope that Sabuda and Reinhart's collaboration continues for many, many years. This book is a treasure.
