REVIEW: Dinosaur Behavior: An Illustrated Guide (nonfiction book) by Michael J. Benton, illustrated by Bob Nicholls

Dinosaur Behavior is nonfiction. I bought my copy new.

Review:

This book covers, in fairly brief chapters, dinosaur physiology, locomotion, senses and intelligence, diets, and social behavior, with mentions of specific research or studies that contributed to what we know about dinosaurs and how they lived their lives. Overall, this is an accessible read intended for teens and general audiences.

There were times I wished Benton had gone into more detail or spent more time on certain topics. In general, though, I really enjoyed this. I already knew some of what it covered from having read other related books, but there were quite a few details that were new to me, and Benton did a good job covering it all in a way that was interesting and easy to follow.
