Jack Horner is a recognized dinosaur expert, most noted for suggesting that duckbilled dinosaurs were social animals who cared for their young. His accomplishments are especially remarkable considering that he flunked out of college due to struggles with dyslexia. This biography follows his career from his first fossil (he found it when he was eight) to his current position at Montana State University, from work on duckbills to Tyrannosaurus Rex. The illustrations include drawings of the people and the dinosaurs discussed in the text.Book Details
