My 6yr old son can be difficult to buy for (as most spectrum kids are) and declared he wanted a 'prehistoric christmas' this year. So along with a few figures and documentaries I found I wanted to get him a book he could leaf through (he loves books). I wanted a book that would entice and excite him, one that would feed his enthusiasm and eagerness to learn yet not overwhelm him--this book is perfect!! It's bright, colorful, and concise--with fantastic pictures.There is one problem the book will undoubtedly create though--he'll now want a toy/replica of every animal featured in it!When he was 3 he taught his 17 year old cousin about the Aurora Borealis, and I have a feeling after going through this book a few times, that my now 20yr old nephew (and the rest of the cousins) will be educated on hyenadons and cave bears!!
