With whimsy and ingenuity, cut-paper artist Chihiro Takeuchi's second
foray into "guess the animal" will delight dinosaur lovers of all
ages--and fans of stylish concept books.
Whose bones? Tiny bones scattered across the spread are unidentifiable,
but sharp eyes will spy footprints and food sources offered as clues.
Now turn the page, and the bones have magically formed into a
recognizable skeleton--Pteranodon or Stegosaurus, Velociraptor or
Tyrannosaurus--while a stylized depiction of the animal completes the
picture. In a final "fun facts" section, readers curious to know more
will discover that the Ankylosaurus was covered in armor-like plates, an
average-size Allosaurus weighed about as much as a car, and several more
child-friendly tidbits.
