It was interesting and so many facts I didn't know before... The illustrations are great. Will be looking at other books in this series' Toppsta reader review, age 8, on Dunkleosteus. 'This was a super book for us to read together... Any budding paleontologists would be poring all over this and relishing the amazing array of facts and illustrations... Well written with clear explanations of some tricky concepts – this is a book we can keep on the bookshelf for years' Toppsta reader review, parent, on Dunkleosteus. 'An accessible, beautifully illustrated book that covers millions of years of natural history by focusing on one particularly deadly predator... I am intrigued to read the other books in the series' -- Cassie Lawrence, librarian, LoveReading, on Dunkleosteus
