Reviews for Flip-o-Storic
Praise for Sara Ball's Flip-o-saurus: "Sara Ball's Flip-o-saurus... lets readers mix and match dinosaur heads, torsos, and tails to create new species." - Publishers Weekly, from "BookExpo America 2010: Big Children's Books of the Show" "Ball's painted portraits are big and bright enough to draw in even younger children." - School Library Journal "Sturdy split pages allow readers to create their own inventive combinations from among a handful of prehistoric critters... to amusing effect. Drehsen adds first-person captions on the versos, which will also mix and match to produce chuckles." - Kirkus Reviews "Like its predecessor, Flip-o-saurus, this innovative book, which opens calendar-style, displays portraits of several prehistoric animals... With hundreds of possible combinations and detailed descriptions of each physical component, readers will learn plenty, between giggles, about some unusual prehistoric animals." - Publishers Weekly "Flip-o-storic and Flip-o-saurus (Abbeville, 2010) will appeal to a broad audience of readers, reluctant ones included." - School Library Journal
