Who would win Dinosaurs or Ants?

Who Would Win: Triceratops vs. Spinosaurus by Jerry Pallotta

Who Would Win? Green Ants Vs. Army Ants by Jerry Pallotta

April 20, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I have reviewed the Who Would Win? books before. Overall, they are a fun series that gives information about different animals, and if matched up (sometimes naturally happening and sometimes due to imagination) who would win in a Battle Royale. Sometimes one of the books (done in an early reader sized book but range from around ages seven to ten, depending on the reader/listener) might seem “off” by saying a skunk would defeat a coyote (or something like that) but hey, there are skunks and […]

Who Would Win?

Ultimate Bug Rumble by Jerry Pallotta

Jaguar vs. Skunk by Jerry Pallotta

Killer Whale vs Great White Shark by Jerry Pallotta

Rhino vs. Hippo by Jerry Pallotta

October 13, 2021 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I have reviewed others in the Who Would Win? Series. This time around I found four titles that had a few animals you do not normally see in a children’s book as well as surprise upsets in the battle of the best. Each book gives facts, oddities and quirky information about each bug, mammal, or fish. A solid argument is given to why the author thinks the one that wins would win. All the facts are in front of you; and therefore, you can make […]

And in this corner, wearing poisonous fangs…..

August 2, 2018 by BlackRaven 2 Comments

My special needs cousin loved the Who Would Win series. It was a tough read at the time, but it got a struggling student/child/reader to want books. (I gladly gave him what books he did not have for a Christmas gift, because, YAY! Books!) I picked up Komodo Dragon vs. King Cobra and wondered what took me so long to find them? (But I think the author picked the wrong winner!)   Who Would Win puts two animals together that would not seem like they […]
