It features fascinating profiles of each animal, complemented by 120 awesome computer artworks of dinosaurs, pterosaurs, and ichthyosaurs. At-a-glance information-all from the latest research-reveals where and when they lived, what they ate, and what their names mean; silhouettes illustrate their size compared with humans. An introductory section provides insight into fossils, the prehistoric age, and what may have caused the dinosaurs to die out.
