The compact size of the flaps, lined up in rows against generous white space, sets up the surprise for each appearance. Arrows indicate which direction each flap opens, lending pleasing variety to the process. A downward pull of the tall rectangular "D," for example, triggers unexpected horizontal movement as the long tail and neck of Diplodocus emerge in opposite directions. Pull-tabs are mixed in with pop-ups to add variety. Most of the pop-up effects support the written information. The plates and spikes of Kentrosaurus are prominent in the pop-up illustration, for example, while Oviraptor's neck reaches downward to protect its eggs from a predator, demonstrating the guarding characteristic noted in the text. The cartoon illustrations aren't meant to be directly accurate anatomical representations, which works fine in most instances: the exaggerated jaws of Herrasaurus, for example, call attention to a prominent feature. On the other hand, while the look and size of the pop-up Tyrannosaurus are impressive, its upright posture is misleading. The clean layout allows readers to absorb each dinosaur one by one; open flaps often overlap their neighboring letters and are clearly meant to be viewed one at a time. VERDICT While the pop-ups themselves aren't visually stunning and the factual information is brief, the words and movable images work together to create an introduction to dinosaurs that has great child appeal.—Steven Engelfried, Wilsonville Public Library, OR Read more Review From Allosaurus to Zuniceratops, a mix of familiar standbys and new or rare finds with bite-sized facts for confirmed dinomanes.—Kirkus ReviewsThe words and movable images work together to create an introduction to dinosaurs that has great child appeal.—School Library JournalThis charmingly understated pop-up book offers a wealth of information on the ever-popular topic of dinosaurs....

I wish the publisher had used a little more heavy cars stock pages because this is a delicate book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Product Attributes *by H***O on November 24, 2015* PROS- Creative pop-up folding- Nice drawings- Engaging and attractive to childrenCONS- Some flaps might be a little weakNotes: I've had this item for a few months and it is still a favorite in the house. It is liked by both my soon 4-year old boy and my 11-month old one. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love! *by R***V on June 3, 2016* The first version we had of this book was loved to death, so we had to get another! Great for kids who love dinosaurs and amazing to hear them really saying the names with the alphabet. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/42192940-robert-crowthers-pop-up-dinosaur-abc](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/42192940-robert-crowthers-pop-up-dinosaur-abc) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
