20,000 words approx. A great gift for young dinosaur lovers. All information is presented in a fun, playful way with color illustrations throughout. An accessible way of drawing kids into the science of dinosaurs and palaeontology.
From tiny, four-winged Microraptor to skyscraping Sauroposeidon, every dinosaur is a source of fascination to young readers. Curious kids will love learning about the hunting strategies of Velociraptor; the powerful defensive features of Triceratops; the mysterious function of Stegosaurus' plates; and the extraordinary trumpeting communication of Parasaurolophus.
This book delves into the lives of flying reptiles such as the giraffe-sized Quetzalcoatlus, and deep-diving ancient ocean dwellers such as terrifying Mosasaurus. It showcases the lush artworks of Lucy Semple, and every fact has been reviewed by renowned paleontologist Dougal Dixon.
What a great way to discover the wonders of the prehistoric world for children aged 5+.
