Dinotopia: A Land Apart from Time (Calla Editions)

I was given this book when I was 10 years old when it came out in 1992. I instantly loved it, the illustrations captivated me and I loved the story. I have a copy to my 8 year old nephew and he loved it too. He struggles a little with reading but he flew through this book and spent ages on each page looking at all the detail. It’s a magical world, everyone should have a copy.

The book was packaged well, nothing really protecting the book but a thin card exterior and a thin plastic sheet. No rips or marks on the book but some very slight indents on the cover when it arrived. That would be my postal service 9/10(Would like something a bit more protective, not all delivery drivers take care)The book.. It is the book, no missing pages, text or images. 10/10.Final score 4.9/5

This, quite frankly, is one of the books that will forever stay within your childs memory (like it did with my brothers and I), so that one day they will sit on Amazon and buy it for their children.The illustrations are incredible, the story more than engaging and the moral code and lessons to be learned from this book are deep, loving and meaningful.I dare you find a single person on this planet who loves books and doesn't like this.

Fantastic art by one of the most outstanding classic traditional artists of this generation.

As an artist this book is great for references and very inspirational

I love this book the story and illustrations are amazing.

An excellent book difficult to obtain in the UK; Gurney's artwork is sensational and it is good to be able to have a pre-owned copy as I follow his art blogs online. Book came from the USA and arrived very promptly and well-packaged

This is a children's book, but I really love it. The story is imaginative and inspiring and the art work is stunning.
