Ready for the best dinosaur books for kids of all ages –that they’ll love? These are the best nonfiction book choices for growing readers who love dinosaurs.

Here’s what’s great about these books…Even kids with only a passing interest can learn to appreciate the wonder of these creatures of prehistoric times.

And if it’s not a passing fancy, this obsession has proven to be long-term beneficial for children.

While some of these children’s books go into the science and history of dinosaurs, others are playful and fun — perfect for preschool and kindergarten ages.

For example, my kids ADORED Jane Yolen’s HOW DO DINOSAURS series. Which has nothing to do with science or real life but lots to do with kids and behavior. But, they’re funny, and fun!

Which of these good dinosaur books will be your child’s favorite?

In the Past: From Trilobites to Dinosaurs to Mammoths in More Than 500 Million Years by David Elliott, illustrated by Matthew Trueman
Aptly oversized to reflect many of the gigantic creatures within, these poems and gorgeous illustrations celebrate prehistoric creatures.

Introduce children to great artists like Grandma Moses, Mary Cassat, DaVinci, Qi Baishi, Alma Thomas, and so many more! I adore this book’s engaging illustrations showing the style of each famous artist. You’ll see Degas’ dinosaurs turning pirouettes, Matisse’s colorful paper dinosaurs, Warhol’s dinosaur soup, and even the Dino Lisa. Playful, relatable, and instructive.

I Want That Love by Tasuya Miyanishi
In the harrowing prehistoric world, the Tyrannosaurus believes that the strongest is best. Until when he’s old and wounded, he meets baby Triceratops who show him kindness and Tyrannosaurus shows love in return. This beautiful story will make you think about what is best and kindness to others.

Mamasaurus by Stephan Lomp
Babysaurus can’t find his Mamsaurus so he asks other dinosaurs he meets if they have seen her. The dramatic black background makes the colorful dinosaurs pop in this sweet story about a Mamasaurus who was really there all along.

In a graphic novel with realistic, dramatic illustrations, readers follow a T Rex family from the birth of hatchlings all the way to their adulthood, or at least the adulthood of those infants who survive.

Unfortunately, they are not the only humans trying to survive. LOVE  it!

Kids who are interested in dinosaurs can see what they looked like including all 600 of the species in this book. Along with the illustration, each dinosaur page shows how to pronounce their name, facts, and information, often with photo inserts of bones and paleontologist reports.

The back of the book includes a dino dictionary listing names, meanings, geological age, where it lived, fossils, length, and group. It’s incredible!! Kids who love dinosaurs NEED this book. It’s the one-stop field guide to everything dino.

14 best books about dinosaurs for toddlers, preschoolers and more

The theme of dinosaurs has fascinated and attracted children for generations, so there are so many books about ancient dinosaurs that it is very easy to get confused when choosing. We have compiled a list of the most popular, most reliable and highest quality publications of recent years. Don't thank!

1. “Children's Encyclopedia. Dinosaurs”, publishing house “Rosmen”

Let's start with publications that are so well established that they are reprinted again and again - for many years. These include, for example, the children's encyclopedia "Dinosaurs" - a bright colorful book with lively and very realistic pictures. Even a three-year-old will be happy to look at the illustrations in it, and the student will draw a lot of interesting information and facts.

Another bestseller is the Dinosaurs edition of the Encyclopedia for Kindergarten series. Both children and adults love it for bright and reliable pictures - and for the simplicity of the information provided. You will see, soon even the most unpronounceable names of dinosaurs will be known by heart by the whole family.

3. Dinosaurs. The Illustrated Atlas, Michael Brett-Shuman

If not for the panorama book (which will be discussed below), the Illustrated Atlas would be the most impressive publication in our selection: large format, amazing illustrations, and even a full Dictionary of Dinosaurs with information about 140 (!) species. In addition, this book contains the results of the latest research and discoveries in the field of paleontology. In general, a huge beautiful and informative book for the most dedicated dinosaur lovers.

And here is the same book-panorama. Luxurious - let's not be afraid of this word - edition, a real work of art. On every page, in every pocket there is a surprise: the prickly back of an Ankylosaurus, the sharp horns of a Triceratops, or even the huge mouth of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. You can't put it down, the book is so captivating and unique. And information about dinosaurs in it is presented in a simple and accessible way. The perfect gift for a young paleontologist! Unless, of course, close your eyes to the cost.

An extremely cute encyclopedia about dinosaurs with a curious structure: in the first part, the child gets acquainted with prehistoric times with the help of funny cartoon stories, and in the second part, a more serious encyclopedic part - learns in detail and in detail about each of the types of dinosaurs separately. The book tells about the environment in which dinosaurs lived, and about their way of life, and about the very process of studying ancient reptiles.

All kids love books with windows - so feel free to choose this format for your first acquaintance with ancient dinosaurs. For example, the book "Magic Windows" from the publishing house "Robins" - bright, colorful, with cheerful smiling dinosaurs, literally calling to make friends. At the same time, the book will tell about their lifestyle: where they lived, what they ate and how long they lived, as well as explain what fossils are and how they help scientists study dinosaurs.

Also a bright book with windows, but suitable for older children: the images are more realistic here, and the information is more serious. The child will be able to study in detail the skeleton of a dinosaur, consider the fierce fights that took place in the world of lizards, and also find out about the origin of life in general. Behind each of the 65 flaps is a curious fact from the life of your favorite dinosaurs.

8. Super stickers. Dinosaurs”, publishing house “Makhaon”

Well, what kind of children do not like stickers?! And if they are also on the theme of dinosaurs, then this is a double pleasure for the baby. Choose from a variety of albums with hundreds of colorful stickers and let your child create their own stories.

The book from the most popular series “Find and show” is 5 spreads with a huge number of dinosaurs. Each panorama corresponds to a separate historical era, and the child's task is to find each of the dinosaurs depicted on a special valve. Believe me, this is an excellent training of attention and visual memory.

Not quite an ordinary - and maybe even quite unusual encyclopedia about dinosaurs. With its help, the child will be able to revive more than 30 different dinosaurs! After all, reading information about eating habits, size and weight with mom, looking at illustrations is one thing, but launching a moving triceratops with the help of a gadget, feeding it with fern leaves and even taking pictures with it is quite another. The perfect combination of learning and fun.

We are just crazy about Chevostik - and we do not hide it. And no less reverently than audio stories, we love printed books with questions from the inquisitive Chevostik and detailed answers from the omniscient Uncle Kuzi. "Dinosaurs and other reptiles" is like a story book about adventures, but with a huge educational overtones. From the conversations of Chevostik and Uncle Kuzi, the child learns a lot not only about the formidable ancient lizards, but also about their descendants, which we can see today: about lizards, crocodiles, turtles. We strongly recommend for preschool and primary school age.

An excellent format for younger children: simple, but kind and instructive stories about little dinosaurs who study in an unusual dinosaur school. Pleasant illustrations, simple narrative language and a brief encyclopedic reference on a particular type of dinosaur - in each book in the series. Well, the names speak for themselves: “Deinosuchus forgot to brush his teeth”, “Stegosaurus celebrates a birthday”, “Brontosaurus is new in class”.

A wonderful series of children's preschool books about the adventures of the girl Rita and the boy Nikita - nothing less than that - in the prehistoric world! With the help of a magical book found in the attic, children travel to the distant past, to the Jurassic period, to meet cute brachiosaurs, allosaurs, and even a diplodocus baby there. A fascinating plot and the development of horizons - in one book.

Another great educational book about the adventures of children who traveled through time and found themselves in the world in the age of dinosaurs - but for an older audience. By the way, we note that Gerald Durrell is a world-famous naturalist writer, so there is no doubt about the reliability of the facts mentioned.
