I think that this chapter book is a fairly easy and fun read. The author has a way of stimulating readers through the plot and characterizations. The plot always keeps you wondering what is happening next. For example, chapter one ends with the students wondering how thy are going to get more information about a dinosaur fossil, and the text says "nothing is impossible with the magic school bus." I also enjoy this book because of its characterization. The characters all play their own role within the story making them each unique. Dorothy Ann is known as the "smart one" which is very clearly depicted within the text. The overall message of this book is to teach students about dinosaurs and its fossils from where they lived to how long they lived.

This is a very adventure filled book with lots of funny things that happens, and teaches children alot about the artifacts of dinosaurs. ( )
