Produktbeschreibung

Step back in time to discover the world of prehistory! This beautifully illustrated hardback encyclopedia is packed with fantastic facts about more than 100 dinosaurs and other ancient animals. 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+.
