Product Description

To this day, dinosaurs remain a never-ending source of fascination to children, who just can't get enough of these compelling creatures. Illustrations, picturing over 60 dinosaur types (including some new discoveries that appear here for the first time in a children's book), maps, and a guide to each individual species--plus an overall introduction to fossils--tell youngsters how and why all the dinosaurs developed as they did. Answer exactly the types of question kids want to know: How big were they? What did they eat? Where did they live? What do their names mean? This lively trip back to the Age of the Dinosaurs, from its beginnings in the Triassic period to the great extinction at the end of the Cretaceous, is guided by one of the major authorities in the field, Dr. Thomas Holtz, vertebrate paleontologist at the University of Maryland, whose specialty is the study of carnivorous dinosaurs.

5-0 out of 5 stars Deadly Storms...for Younger Readers!
Throughout history, tornadoes and hurricanes have brought about horrendous death and destruction worldwide. Gary Jeffrey examines TORNADOES & SUPERSTORMS in this 2007 entry in Rosen Publishing's 'Graphic Natural Disasters' series. Like others in the series, it's intended for readers in the 9-12 age group.

After four pages of text and photographs detailing the nature/history of tornadoes and superstorms, the book presents Graphic Novel stories on the Tri-State Tornado of 1925, the Halloween Storm of 1991 and the 1997 Jarrell Killer Tornado. Illustrator Terry Riley does a good job of presenting the reality of such storms. People in peril are depicted but the presentation isn't sensationalistic. Readers in the 9-12 group should be able to handle the material. The book wraps up with a section on weather warning technology, a glossary and a 'For Further Information' section.

TORNADOES & SUPERSTORMS does an effective, dramatic job of introducing those deadly winds to younger readers. Recommended. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars The Fox Cub Bold

This fourth instalment sees a young cub wild in the "real world" for the first time after voluntarily segregating himself from his friends and his father, "the Farthing Wood fox", whose shadow continues to hang over him.

Impressively Dann manages to draw immediate focus to a single character and his few acquaintances after spending so much time on the huge Farthing Wood cast.He does so with grace and clarity, creating a story that presents itself with crystal clarity whilst prompting strong emotional responses in the reader.It's hard to believe that a fox's circumstances could illicit such powerful responses!

The protagonist is superbly draw and rounded in a way that I don't see even in most adult fiction.You'll be swept along in a wonderful, funny, and very sad story that has always been my favourite of the series.

Product Description
The daughter of the ruthless King Henry VIII, Elizabeth's rule was perilous. Surrounded by religious unrest, Elizabeth proved a shrewd and ruthless leader, executing rivals and even members of her own family. She led her country to victory against the Spanish Armada and her reign heralded an English Golden Age. The speech bubbles and strip cartoon-style illustrations of the graphic novel create a dynamic format that encourages readers to engage with the characters and get involved in the story. The opening pages provide historical context about the political turmoil in sixteenth-century Europe, and the troubled past of the Royal House of Tudor. The closing pages explain what happened when Elizabeth was succeeded by King James VI of Scotland, the subsequent Gunpowder plot and how the legacy of 'Good Queen Bess' survives even to this day. It features a glossary, index and recommended further reading. It supports Key Stage 2 History: 'A study of Tudor England', and helps achieve the goals of the Scottish Standard Curriculum 5-14, promoting 'positive attitudes to learning', 'knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the world' and 'skills in literacy'. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Surviving the Savage Sea...For Younger Readers!
Part of Rosen Publishing's 'Graphic Survival Stories' series, DEFYING DEATH AT SEA relates three tales of survival at sea. Though intended for readers 9-12, Gary Jeffrey's book could be enjoyed by teens and adults as well.

In this 2010 Rosen release, Jeffrey and artist Terry Riley first present the experiences of Lieutenant William Bligh and 18 of his crew from HMS Bounty who were cast adrift in a small boat by mutineers led by Fletcher Christian. In an amazing feat of navigation and endurance, Bligh and crew sailed over 3,600 miles to a safe port, losing only one man on the journey. Next comes the soul-crushing experience of merchant sailor Poon Lim who survived the torpedoing of SS Ben Lomond only to endure 133 days along on a life raft before being rescued. The final story covered is the July 1945 sinking of cruiser USS Indianapolis and the terrifying experiences of her surviving crew who endured ongoing shark attacks before rescuers arrived three days later. Although 880 men survived the sinking, only 320 were left alive to be saved.

Jeffrey and Riley do an effective job of presenting the horror inherent in each story. Several images - men eating birds and fish raw, a human body cut in half by sharks, etc. - may be a little graphic for the target audience. The book also includes informative sections on the earth's oceans, survival at sea, other notable survival stories, a glossary and 'For Further Reading' suggestions.

Although the events depicted in DEFYING DEATH AT SEA were sometimes horrifying, the poor souls involved triumphed in the end. Their experiences as described and depicted in this book should interest readers of all ages. Recommended. ... Read more
