Betrayed on all sides, she finds herself fighting not only for her country but for her life, and in the end, for the life of the man she loves.

Gr. 1^-2. Well-composed, precise line drawings brightened with watercolors make this an excellent choice for dinosaur buffs. Kids drawn by the cover will find the book's central idea an original one: many of the animals and plants from dinosaur days are still around today. The text points out some of these creatures within a counting-book framework: "We can see three wiggly worms, same as the dinosaurs saw." This math component seems an artificial device, superimposed on the central idea but adding little to it. Still, children will find this an intriguing addition to the Hello Reader! series. Describes what the world was like when dinosaurs roamed the earth, and introduces many of the animals and plants in nature today that were also seen by the dinosaurs.
