Each title blends stunning full-colour photographs and illustrations with clear explanations and extraordinary facts that are guaranteed to inform and to entertain. In Dinosaurs , you will find: key information - everything from a carnivore's menu to the size of the largest dinosaur tooth; intriguing bite-size facts - most dinosaurs walked on their toes and the smallest dinosaurs were about the size of a chicken; real-life stories - like the man who spent 17 years collecting dinosaur bone fragments and ended up with 5,796 bones, which he used to build a lodge the size of a Diplodocus; 'Big word alert' glossaries - clear and straightforward explanations of difficult words such as 'paleontologist'; and, stunning artwork and detailed diagrams.
