This is Bristol

There are only three days to go before you can get your hands on a great fact-filled book all about dinosaurs in a Bristol Evening Post giveaway.

We are offering you the chance to pick up an encyclopaedia all about the prehistoric creatures on Thursday.

The hardback book will be free with every copy of the paper bought that day and is the first in a 24-part series, which you can collect.

They will be available each week, for just £2.99, with a voucher from the Evening Post.

We took part one of Disney's The Wonderful World of Knowledge to dinosaur fan Joseph Baker.

Joseph, nine, of Longwell Green likes visiting museums with fossils and dinosaur skeletons, so this book was right up his street.

He said: "I have lots of dinosaur books, but this one is pretty good. I like nearly all the dinosaurs, but especially T Rex and triceratops. I like T Rex because it is the scariest one. I would love it if they could come alive and I could keep one in the garden. I like books with facts, and there are lots of new facts in this book. Dinosaurs are really interesting.

"My favourite bit in the book was a really interesting fact about one of the dinosaurs which had its nest seven metres apart so the baby dinosaurs' mum could sleep next to it."

There are all sorts of books in the series, ranging from sport to a book all about birds and another about travellers and explorers.

There are also books on reptiles and amphibians, famous people, famous places, spiders and insects, an atlas of the world, the human body, history from the stone age to the space age, wonders of the sea, the marvels of science, how machines work, the kingdom of mammals, children of the world, the planet earth, plants, great inventions, space, dance, drama and music, transport, the world of art and communications.
