    I like this book better than the other illustrated "Life Size" books. It has more variety and more interesting dinosaurs, and fresher illustrations. However, it can't compare to the photographic "Life Size" books (like LS Zoo, LS Farm, LS Aquarium). I understand that it would be impossible to have a photographic book of dinosaurs, but only mention the comparison because once you've seen the photographic "Life Size" books, it's hard for any others to compare.
