“Overall, it’s a intelligent and fun introduction to ancient creatures that roamed our planet, and the geological processes that shaped its landscapes. There’s a brief glossary in the back explaining some of the unfamiliar terms and creatures featured, but still leaves a lot to the curious mind, with the final page asking the reader to ponder what wonders the distant future might hold (winged rabbits?).”

“In the crowded aisles of New York ComicCon, a quiet book called out to me. My eye was drawn to the painterly, slightly retro style, and as I thumbed through the book, I fell in love with all of the paintings that let kids know about the wild ride our planet has been on for the past 250 million years or so.”
