creatures from across the globe, entertaining and educating young
readers through a combination of close-up images, quirky trivia facts,

When did dinosaurs die out? What does a Pachycephalosaurus look like and
how thick is its skull? How many pounds of meat could a Tyrannosaurus
rex swallow at once? Find out the answers to these questions and more in
DKfindout! Dinosaurs, which features photographs of dinosaur fossils

fossils, and find out how birds and reptiles are distantly related to
dinosaurs.
