Book Descriptions
for Bones, Bones, Dinosaur Bones by Byron Barton
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
"Bones. Bones. We look for bones." Paleontologists start out on a search for dinosaur bones, dig them up and assemble them into reconstructions of familiar dinosaurs. A brief, rhythmic text accompanied by flat, boldly colored illustrations outlined with heavy black lines make this introduction to dinosaur-hunting accessible to very young children. (Ages 18 months-3 years)

Bones. Bones. We look for bones.
We look for the bones of dinosaurs.
We look for the bones of dinosaurs.
Six small paleontologists search for bones. When they find them, they dig them up, wrap them, and load them on a truck, bound for the museum.
There, they carefully put together the bones of a giant dinosaur.
In bright, bold, exuberant pictures, with a text that is just right for reading or chanting aloud, Byron Barton looks at just what happens to the bones left behind by dinosaurs of long, long ago.
