Dino-Dinners
Frances Lincoln/The Natural History Museum (32 pages) 9781845076894
This duo are accomplished at creating cleverly integrated books of pictures and texts of non-fiction. In this one there are clear pictures of dinosaurs and each has a first-hand style introduction to tell of its own characteristics. As the title says, the main attention is on what each creature ate so the meat-eaters are suitably fiercesome and even some of the vegetarians don't look at all cuddly.

My Body Book
Watts (24 pages + extra half) 9780749663803
The half pages are fold-out flaps used very effectively to show the workings of different organs. Clear drawings and clear writing cover sections on senses, muscles, the skeleton, the head - together with the brain, blood, lungs and skin. Where it fits there will be a diagram, such as the cross-section of the digestive system, and all told this is an excellent example of a book to inform the youngest in school.
