Time Flies

I love this book. The art is fantastic. The 'story' is well presented, and hints at the fact that dinosaurs are the ancestors of birds! Spoiler alert - there are no words in this book. It is purely a picture book.

Stunning pictures, a creative way of comparing birds to dinosaurs, and delightful ending. No words--story conveyed in pictures only.

The detailed illustrations in this wordless picture book carry the story very well... words would have cluttered the adventure of this story. As a preschool teacher, integrating wordless picture books offers variety to my repetoire and sparks my students' imaginations. Children seem to identify well with the tone of the book, slow transitions that offer exciting results. Emerging literacy is supported by allowing the reader to add his/her own interpretation of the artwork. Rohmann's work is an ideal companion for a natural history or science museum field trip, or family trip.

Brings me back memories of my childhood years when it comes to this book.

Excellent books. My kids are fascinated by the images. If your kids love dinos, they will enjoy it. Not for little kids (under 3), though, as they will destroy the pages.

I enjoyed this book, its fun, adventurous and entertaining. I'm glad I picked it up. One of the best choose your own adventure books I've read.

this book is great for younger kids as it has no words or dated facts - just an imagination inspiring mini-story told in pictures and planting the seeds of the idea of dinosaurs and birds being related....adults will dig the concepts and beautiful artwork.

I really like this illustrator so I basically bought this to add to my collection. Since this is literally a picture book (no words at all) if you are good at encouraging your child to formulate her own story this could work well as a magical journey you take together. If you're not good at making up stories you might not like this book.

I loved this book as a child. But, like many children, I enjoyed scribbling on it and cutting out some of the dinosaurs in it. One of these days I was digging through some stuff from when I was little and I found my book. So many good memories. The pictures are so beautiful and they're and incentive to imagination. Since my book was already too worn out I decided to buy a new edition and keep it safe on my shelves.

gorgeous illustrations in this wordless picture book. A deserving caldecott honour book!
