I liked how straight-forward this book was. It wasn't busy, filled with unnecessary things or words, it stated the facts and that was it. This book counts down from ten to one and then on the final page, the author reminds us that, yes dinosaurs are extinct.

Each number is given a two-page spread and on those two pages you get a specific dinosaur, the number (1-10) and you get the number written our in words and you an adjective for that dinosaur . So, for 9: it reads 9 nine lazing deinosuchus and includes 9 of them on the page in their various shades of color. What? I don't know what a deinosuchus is? But, I bet a few children do. There were included in this book, dinosaurs that I knew too. Now, I like dinosaurs but some of these dinosaurs have names that I haven't heard before. At the back of the book, the author has included how to pronounce some of the dinosaur names, which does help.

It was an okay book but I think the pronunciations would have helped me more, if they were on the page with the dinosaur. I also didn't care for the illustrations as they didn't match the language of the book. I did like the added adjectives in the book and again, the simplicity of the book , I enjoyed. 3.5 stars

Countdown: Grayson by Allie Boniface

Hopeless Romantic

I love Allie Boniface. Her characters are poetic proof that mistakes aren't the definition of who we are. Grayson and Kara may be different people, but they share a common goal. Moving beyond the negativity that has haunted their lives and create their own brand of beauty. Countdown: Grayson is not the beginning of the end, but the start of something wonderful. Happiness.
