Lift-the-flap questions and answers
Lift-the-flap questions and answers about dinosaurs
“A fascinating insight into the prehistoric world.”
The Guardian
Katie Daynes has written oodles of books for Usborne, from lifting the flaps on germs and poo, through things to spot in the sea and at school, to the life stories of Nelson Mandela and Marie Antoinette. She wrote My First Chess Book after being taught by her son, Joe Birks, who became the British Under 9 Chess Champion in 2017. She now lives in Yorkshire with her architect husband, two inquisitive children and a hamster called Toffee. When she’s not writing books, Katie likes walking on the blustery moors, meeting friends for coffee and playing competitive board games.
If your dino-mad children are plaguing you with some mammoth questions about the wonderful world of Tyrannosaurus rex and his prehistoric pals, why not let this brilliant interactive flap book provide the answers? There could be no better way to open up the inside story on dazzling, dangerous dinosaurs.
Lancashire Evening Post
A charming read with more than 50 flaps to lift.
The Telegraph
A fascinating insight into the prehistoric world, aimed at budding paleontologists from four plus.
