Baby Faces by Dawn Sirett6/20/2023 Illustrations are presented on bright, monochromatic backgrounds each white page is paired with a bright blue, red, yellow, pink, or purple one. Each dinosaur is computer-rendered but loaded with personality. The hope, no doubt, is that pint-sized paleontologists reading this book will soon follow suit. Triceratops hides in bushes and plays peekaboo, Styracosaurus is alert and playful, and Stegosaurus has fallen peacefully asleep on the last page. Other dinosaurs are simply shown being babies. Children can feel the bumps on Edmontonia’s back and count the toes via his footprints: “His front feet have more toes.” Tyrannosaurus rex walks on two hind legs and eats meat, while baby Diplodocus, shown munching on ferns, is a confirmed vegetarian. A “mommy” Saltasaurus has a long, leathery neck her chirping offspring hatches from an egg. Touchable textures, eye-catching foil and glitter, and the titular, winsome baby beasts highlight this introduction for toddlers to these fascinating lizards of yore.įrom its thick, cushioned cover through its firm, final pages, this seemingly indestructible volume introduces seven species of dinosaurs, with a few basic facts and the correct pronunciation of each name.
