Synopsis

Did you know a fossil could be anything from shell or bone to teeth or wood? From huge dinosaurs to tiny plants which can only be seen under a microscope?
Discover everything you need to know about fossils in this introductory guide from a preserved foot of the extinct Moa in New Zealand to a giant frozen mammoth trapped and frozen in the ground in Siberia over 12,000 years ago.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A visual and informative guide to fossils, now revised and updated in the relaunched DK Eyewitness Books format.

Get up close and personal and be an eyewitness to our prehistoric world through fossilized shells, skulls, teeth, plants, and, of course, skeletons with DK Eyewitness Books: Fossil. Discover the most precious fossils in the world; see how fossils form; find out how early historians and scientists used fossils; and learn how you can become a paleontologist with the included fossil guide.

Now available for the first time in paperback, DK Eyewitness Books: Fossil unlocks our prehistoric world.

Series Overview: Each revised Eyewitness book retains the stunning artwork and photography from the groundbreaking original series, but the text has been reduced and reworked to speak more clearly to younger readers. Still on every colorful page: vibrant annotated photographs and the integrated text-and-pictures approach that makes Eyewitness a perennial favorite of parents, teachers, and school-age kids.
