A gorgeous seek and find.

The images are the true star of this book. Marlo falls asleep and goes on this amazing adventure among the dinosaurs in his dream. Each page is a stunning depiction of the shenanigans he gets up to. The seek and find provides a bit of fun.
The lower age for this book advertises is four but there's no story in these pages. No words except at the beginning and the end. The four-year-old I was reading with was ready to move on after the first couple pages. Slightly older kids will get a kick out of it.

Final verdict:
A beautiful adventure that can provide a lot of fun in an engaging way.
