Fun for my 7 year old
These are her thoughts about the book. She enjoyed the unusual construction of the book, including its little pockets and prizes and other surprises scattered throughout. The "pop up" features were especially entertaining. The colorful pictures were nice, especially those of the Greek gods. There is also a card game included (along with an instruction book) that she enjoys playing.Mythology ...

Everything dragons!
This book is informative and beautifully illustrated. My daughter and her fourth grade friends are all very enthusiastic about this book, and use the information in imaginative play at school. The girls read it over and over again; our copy has brought great pleasure for more than a year now (beginning mid-way through third grade) and it makes a nice birthday gift to children interested in ...

A fun and great book for children
This book is a fun and cool book for children. I got this and I loved it. It has cool stuff about mythycal creatures and has other cool stuff like the skin of a sea serpent, skin of lizard, and ashes from a pheonix and much more. These books are great fantasies. And now I collect them.

An Excellent Mythology Primer
Maybe you've heard of Zeus and Hera, or perhaps you know them by their Roman names, Jupiter and Juno. But did you know that the king and queen of the gods were not the first beings, at least according to the ancient Greeks? First came the Titans...or was it that Time laid an egg that became the earth? There are actually a few common myths the Greeks told that explained creation. This guidebook, ...

Fun, Intriguing Book
This is a great book for kids who enjoy interactive creative reads. The extras are always nice to accompany these books. The Egyptology book was snapped up by my students and they loved it. It was quite enjoyable to them and they read more than they often do in books. The big eye was really interesting to them.

I loved this book
I got this book for my birthday from my parents and I love it. It has a cool sword that comes in and out, a pop-up visor, a castle drawbridge that goes up and down. Parts of it are funny and I learned a little more about what it took to become a knight.

Snappy does it again
My 20 month old loves this book. If you have any of the other Snappy pop-up books, this one is far superior (along with the ABC one). This is one of the nicest counting books I have found. Lots of interaction.

Candlewick, 2009

An excellent addition to any dragon fanatic's collection
This book (though not a replacement) is an excellent suppliment to the original Dragonology book. It repeats some of the facts contained in the previous book but also features plenty of new information on both old and new dragon species as well their close relatives. The illustrations are fantastic and (if you have a webcam) can also come alive with awesome 3d images. Overall, I strongly ...
