There was much more to this book than I thought there would be! It’s packed with facts but remains readable.

Here are some helpful links to refute the few errors:

• The Petrified Forest National Park
• The Grand Canyon
• Dinosaurs

Besides that, this really was a neat read. We learned more about our home state yet again!
