What’s yours? Are you a fan of the sharp-toothed, meat-eating predators? If so, your favorite may be Tyrannosaurus rex. Or the sickle-clawed Deinonychus. Or T. rex’s nasty cousin, Tarbosaurus. Or the horned killer Ceratosaurus.

Perhaps you prefer the plant-eating giants. If so, your favorite dinosaur may be the massive Apatosaurus (formerly called Brontosaurus). Or the tallest dinosaur, Brachiosaurus.

If your favorites are the armored dinosaurs, you’ll find plenty of them here, too, like Polacanthus, often called a “walking tank.” Or you may like Stegosaurus and its kin. Or you may prefer the duckbilled dinosaurs, like Parasaurolophus, Lambeosaurus, and Corythosaurus.

Strange-looking dinosaurs, plant-eaters that walked on two legs as well as all four, dinosaurs that had snouts like crocodiles, meat-eating dinosaurs in all sizes and shapes, dinosaurs that looked like birds, dinosaurs that were birds . . . all are here for your viewing pleasure.

Learn about dinosaurs you never heard of before. Discover old friends and find new favorites.

Graham Wellfare – Dinosaurs And Prehistoric Animals

About 4,500 million years ago the Earth came into being. Time passed – millions and millions of years – as the Earth cooled. Then, about 600 million years ago, life began to develop.

The first minute living things – tiny plants, bacteria and viruses – appeared in the seas, releasing life-giving oxygen. Gradually the seas became filled with living creatures. After another few million years came the fish, followed by amphibians and then the reptiles.

We know a great deal about those strange-looking early animals and the world they lived in, from fossils found in the Earth’s rock layers. We know what they ate, what they looked like, and how they lived and died.

Fascinating evidence of early life can be found by anyone, and this beautifully illustrated book will show you what to look for and how to identify what you find.
