TRICERATOPS and other horned herbivores. Included in the twelve dinosaurs featured are some of the most strangely shaped animals that ever roamed Earth. These massive herbivores had arrays of horns protruding from their skulls. Growing outwards from the backs of their heads were large, patterned frills used to scare their enemies and attract mates during courtship displays. Each title in the series, Dinosaurs! takes a close look at one particular type of dinosaur and reveals the facts about these incredible creatures.

Dinosaurs dance out of the book that a boy is reading and head for mischief.
This unique book opens a window on to the lives of dinosaurs from different periods of the lost world, namely the early dinosaurs, land dinosaurs, wetland dinosaurs, creatures of the deep, and prehistoric flying creatures. The book introduces the creatures of each period or setting in the flat spreads, and then and then tells their stories in the five multi-layered spreads, which are made up of either two or three flaps. The scenes work in tandem with sound effects--activated upon lifting the final layer--to bring the scenes to brilliant life. The book features prehistoric creatures such as the hunters, planteaters, marine and flying reptiles, and insects.
Recounts the life and fossil discoveries of Barnum Brown, the paleontologist who, in 1908, discovered the largest and most complete Tyrannosaurus skeleton that had ever been found.
