I often get asked to recommend books for budding young paleontologists.
Publishers who are interested in having paleontology books reviewed on Suite 101, please contact me by email for my mailing address. I am always interested in reviewing new books about paleontology! The first group are books that are appropriate for young children (elementary school age or younger) who are interested in dinosaurs. Robert T. Bakker, Maximum Triceratops, Random House, 2004 Robert T.
