The DATA Set find themselves stuck in the prehistoric era in the second adventure of the brand-new series! Thanks to Dr. Bunsen's latest wacky invention, the DATA Set are blasted back to the prehistoric era. Gabe is in heaven, but Laura warns that they shouldn't touch anything. She's afraid they could contaminate the past and permanently change the future! But it's hard not to interfere with the locals as the crew quickly finds themselves dashing from flying pterosaurs, stomping stegosaurus stampedes, and a sharp-toothed T-rex! Will they be able to survive in the past...or have their futures been lost for good?
With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, The DATA Set chapter books are perfect for beginning readers!

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.
