I work with pre-schoolers who LOVE books about dinosaurs...have you thought of creating Dinotopia books of a level for pre-readers? I have shown my students Dinotopia but the books are a little bit too much for this age group (3-6 years)...I admire your work. Perhaps a series of ten books? I believe they would inspire millions of readers.
Hi, Jonesport, I've considered adapting some of my books for younger readers, but I've found people of all ages can get something out of them as they're written now. It's OK if stuff goes over some reader's heads. I'm not naturally cut out for writing to a targeted age group. I've met so many 4 and 5 year olds who are dino experts that I've thrown out any assumption about what people of different ages are capable of or interested in.
