Raptor Red is truly an imaginative story told from the point of view of a female raptor and her love for her sibling and the 'chicks'. Of particular interest to me was a passage about how she and her pack deal with a nasty parasite and how she resolves the issue. I know, sounds gross, but really, it's quite intuitive. Red has romance, sorrow, and family strife, all the good things that make up a satisfying story. I'd love to see Mr. Bakker write more prehistoric stories from the animals' point-of-view. Excellent, quick read. Suitable for age 13 on up. Not for small children.
