Gr 1-3-The kids of the DATA (Danger! Action! Trouble! Adventure!) Set are at it again and this time Dr. B's time machine has sent them back to the Jurassic Period. Detailed and specific dinosaur facts will please dino aficionados, and this is a good series for science-minded kids. It's nice to see a trio of Latino children as the heroes in a sci-fi adventure story, and plentiful black-and-white illustrations break up the text and move the action along quickly. A quick recap of the first book helps this installment stand alone, although readers will want to seek out the first book to learn more about these characters. Kids who are not quite ready for "Magic Tree House" will enjoy these time-traveling adventures.

Ada Hopper

Ada Hopper has been extremely inventive ever since she was little. There was nothing that a rubber band and some tweezers couldn't fix, no question that couldn't be answered by scouring the library, and no way she wasn't escaping over that backyard fence! Ada loves reading and writing because of all the fantastical worlds a good book can bring you to. When not working, Ada enjoys karaoke, spending time with her family, and going on the occasional adventure or two.
