Review
Berkowitz’ style is goofy and lighthearted, but there’s plenty of real information … this is an effectively wacky look at a revealing if odd branch of science. (Bulletin of the Centre for Children’s Books )

Technically, the book is superbly organized, and written in a zippy, engaging style that balances fact with fun… any young reader fascinated with prehistoric life will love Jurassic Poop. (Quill & Quire )
