    The book was exactly as described and arrived quickly. The only problem is a recurring one with this seller and other similar sellers - the book is poorly packaged in a plastic envelope and gets heavily bumped in shipping. I would like to see the books wrapped before shipment, but I understand this can't be done for cost reason. Luckily it isn't an expensive book, and I will continue to purchase basic books from this seller. A+++++

    Positive experience but could be better. Item description was accurate but, it was shipped in a simple bag with no carton or any protection. The bag was broken in places and the USPS bent the book like it was a newspaper and ruined what was an excellent looking book. That was clearly the USPS fault but a "Do Not Bend" or carton would help next time. Otherwise accurate description, value, condition and Fast shipping. I'm a returning customer and will keep buying from World of Books

    Inviting and great fun

    Exceptionally creative words and illustrations that is executed with skill and imagination. A fantastic gift for anyone, especially children. A society of creatures (dinosaurs) and humans that captured ideas on building a society and again, the story is full of exceptional illustrations translating the words into the visuals. From very young even into adulthood. If a child cannot read the illustrations are great to share with a child and make for conversation.

    James Gurney created a new land, complete in every way, and beautifully rendered.

    Over the decades I have bought about 10 of these books. I want every child I know to have a copy. This book is a perfect gift. The story is great, the characters wonderful, and the artwork is the best. The pure imagination and time to create and fill out this "world" is beyond my reckoning. I am so grateful that the artist carried it out. He even created a Dinotopian alphabet and carried it out on the signage and on the monuments. Incredible! The subsequent movies are a testament that this classic will appeal to everyone, not just children.
