RATINGS I rate this book a 4 star. I didn’t rate it 5 because Jack got swooped by a dinosaur. I really like this book. It’s great for adventurous people like me. It’s also great for boys and girls who like dinosaurs. These are my final ratings.

WHAT I THOUGHT I thought this was a great book to read, I could have wrote so much about this. I could use 15 pieces of notebook paper! This was very adventurous and surprising to me. I would tell my friends about this book.
