Are there any literary subjects that you won't ask your family for as gifts etc?

For me, it is dinosaurs.
For some reason people just don't understand that books about dinosaurs can be for adults and can be fascinating non fiction.

I don't get it.
I asked my parents as a birthday gift for some 'dinosaur books'. I was hoping they might get me some non fiction, word heavy books discussing the Science behind dinosaurs and their history in this planet.

What did I receive?
Pic fucking related, along with about 3 other childrens books with cartoon fucking dinosaurs. As I opened the gifts they made mocking 'roaring' noises to make fun of me and instead of a card I got a drawing of a PS4's fossil because 'we were going to get you a PS4 but they had gone extinct'.

I don't get it- Dinosaurs are a fucking FASCINATING subject. Why are they treated like childrens entertainment? There isn't enough good literature on them to begin with but I expect people to understand dinosaur books do exist.

I only got money from my family for the last decade or so. I don't even need the money since I have a pretty nice salary nowadays. I would really enjoy a simple well thought out gift.

Here's a tip. Dont ask em for books. My mom got me "the sun also rises" four years in a row because I told her i liked Hemingway when I was sixteen. Just tell them to get you an amazon gift card or better yet, a netflix subscription so you can binge watch "Dino-trux" or "Dragon Tales" or whatnot.
