Ed Lessem presents us with an absolute treasure trove
of dinosaur information in this exhaustive and
gorgeously illustrated volume. Dinosaurs A to Z
lists every known dinosaur alphabetically. Each entry covers
when and where the dinosaur lived, what it probably looked
like, how big they were, what they ate, and what their
names mean. Fascinating stories and facts are also provided,
along with some really stunning paintings by award-winning
illustrator Jan Sovak. With over 700 entries, this is an invaluable
resource for the family bookshelf, especially in light of all
the new discoveries about dinosaurs which have caused
many older theories about how they looked and acted
to become outdated.
