I would have preferred a tighter focus on Earl Douglas; the book takes a while to narrow down to the Carnegie (later Douglas) quarry where so many Jurassic skeletons were found. The side bars from Douglas's diary entry were interesting, although my fourth graders had trouble deciphering the small cursive writing. An interesting book, but without the WOW factor of Bones. B
