Synopsis

This exciting and colorful new book presents dinosaurs through a combination of stunning, new artwork, zoom-in boxes, fun comparisons, and quiz and puzzle features. It covers all the key dinosaur topics, such as when and where they lived, what they hunted, what they ate, where they came from and what happened to them. The book is split into chapters that concentrate on different kinds of dinosaurs, highlighting particular aspects of each kind. We find out what makes a tyrannosaurus different from a diplodocus, what a triceratops has horns and what modern birds owe to the world of dinosaurs. Colorful maps and simple charts show where dinosaur fossils have been found and the place of different dinosaurs in the larger picture of prehistory. A comprehensive glossary covers important dinosaur words.
