Quick Summary
Discover the incredible world of Asian dinosaurs and see how these ancient giants compare to animals we see today, from towering sauropods that munched like modern elephants to fierce predators that may have shared tricks with today's lions. Kids will be fascinated by the surprising connections between long-extinct creatures and living animals, like how Therizinosaurus might have used its enormous claws for the same reasons a giant anteater uses its long tongue.

Ideal for early readers ages 5-8 in kindergarten through second grade.
