Read and find out about tyrannosaurs beyond T. Rex in this colorfully
illustrated nonfiction picture book.
Everyone knows that Tyrannosaurus rex is the huge dinosaur with sharp
claws and tiny arms. But in this appealing level 2 picture book from
acclaimed science writer Melissa Stewart, you'll learn that T. rex is
not the only tyrannosaur that existed in prehistoric times.
This book is the perfect overview of the exciting new discoveries in the
land of tyrannosaurs. Read and find out how tyrannosaurs evolved--from
the tiny Dilong to the enormous T. rex. The book also includes an
infographic, activity, and glossary, as well as "Dr. Steve Says"
sidebars that give readers insight into what it felt like for Dr. Steve
to be involved with the discovery of P. Rex!
In the last fifteen years, scientists have found many tyrannosaurs,
including one with a really long pointy nose. The New York Times
bestselling coauthor of this book, Dr. Steve Brusatte, went to China in
order to help ID the dinosaur that he would give the nickname Pinocchio
Rex.
