I can't say the same about Henry's 'RAPTOR: The Life of a Young Deinonychus' (henceforth Life). As far as I know, Bakker's book gives the best idea of 1) what dromaeosaurs were like when alive, & 2) how we know what we know. Holtz's 'Dinosaurs' in general & Chapter 20 in particular). If you want the best day-in-the-life dromaeosaur book, get Bakker's 'Raptor Pack' & read it in conjunction with other, more recent books (E.g. I can't say the same about Henry's 'RAPTOR: The Life of a Young Deinonychus' (hen The odd life of a young sparkleraptor (. ): 1/5 If you want the best day-in-the-life dromaeosaur book, get Bakker's 'Raptor Pack' & read it in conjunction with other, more recent books (E.g. Julia rated this 4 stars and it's her account but if it was mine, out of the books I've read with her excluding the academics, I'd give it a 5 easy.more

There's a good bit included and the author did such a good job that I'll be looking for any others as soon as I'm finished this review. The story itself follows one Deinonychus who is a part of a pack through a fight or two, some searching for food, an injury, mating and having babies hatch, etc. She likes to tell me, 'It's just the circle of life Mom.' when I get squeamish. My daughter is 7 years old and has been reading about dinos (even some that were meant for adults, some that I'd call academic she's systematically gone through already) for years already so she can't be shocked in this manner. I personally think it's fantastic and it is done tastefully but some kids are more sensitive than others and a parent might want to just glance through if the child reading or listening is very young and/or very sensitive. I do know kids, not mine, that would be bothered by some of the artwork here. The artwork is quite beautiful although I do have to say some of the pictures may be a little too graphic for some children. Most of the dino books we read go through multiple dinos and this was a story about this, and the supporting, dinos. The Deinonychus isn't one of the most well known dinosaurs but it also isn't one of the rare ones we read about. I do know kids, not mine, that would be bothered by some of the ar Mommy's review from 2/16/13.

Mommy's review from 2/16/13 - This impressed me.
