Dig Those Dinosaurs

24 pp. | Whitman | March, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8075-1579-2 $15.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Francisca Marquez. From "dig, dig, dig..." to "rig, rig, rig those dinosaur bones" (to a final figurative "dig" as kids enjoy the display), this book uses a simple repetitive refrain to explain how paleontologists collect, ship, and mount a dinosaur exhibit for a museum. Though somewhat static, the pictures extend the text nicely. Back matter adds factual details to each step.
