Table of Contents Introduction Chapter 1: Appearance Chapter 2: Behavior Chapter 3: Environment Conclusion Author Bio Bonus Dinosaur Content Introduction to Dinosaurs Facts about Dinosaurs Dinosaur Extinction Dinosaur Fossils Dinosaur Eggs Dinosaur Names Dinosaur Diet Feathered Dinosaurs Plant Eating Dinosaurs The Weirdest Dinosaurs The Deadliest Dinosaurs Flying Dinosaurs Kinds of Dinosaurs The Biggest Dinosaurs The Smallest Dinosaurs Author Bio Publisher Introduction Hello young reader! Today we are going to go back in time to the age of the dinosaurs. The dinosaurs are an extinct species of animal that lived on the planet Earth millions of years ago. Extinct means that they no longer exist. They are some of the most intriguing, mysterious, and wonderful creatures to have existed on our planet. We are going to pay attention to one particular dinosaur in this book: the Dilophosaurus. The Dilophosaurus is an interesting dinosaur because of its strange appearance; it has two crests on top of its head. We are going to talk about not only the crests though, but about how it might have looked and acted and where it lived and what dinosaurs it lived with. It is important that we talk about why we should even be talking about the dinosaurs- they are extinct after all. This, though, is a silly question! It is like asking why you should like rose bushes, fresh breezes, or anything else that isn’t useful. Dinosaurs are inherently worthy of appreciation, just like rose bushes and fresh breezes. The study of dinosaurs also helps you to appreciate just how mysterious and amazing our planet is! Just think how cool it is that this planet could support life-forms as different as dinosaurs and human beings! The point is that one should approach the study of dinosaurs with a sense of wonder and openness, because dinosaurs are incredible creatures.

A comprehensive e-guide to dinosaurs and prehistoric animals and the world they inhabited millions of years ago. Includes more than 700 full-color illustrations, this definitive e-guide paints a vivid portrait of extraordinary dinosaurs and prehistoric animals, and the ecosystems they lived in millions of years ago. This e-guide features authoritative text, crystal-clear illustrations, and a straightforward approach to revealing the fascinating lives and habitats of dinosaurs, pterosaurs, marine reptiles, and prehistoric beasts. The introductory section explains classification systems, geological timelines, the evolution of the dinosaurs, and how fossils form and are discovered by paleontologists. For ease of reference, the main body of the ebook is divided into three sections: the Precambrian and Paleozoic eras, when animals first began evolving; the Mesozoic era, which saw the flourishing and eventual extinction of the dinosaurs; and the Cenozoic era, when giant mammals walked the Earth. Each section is broken down into its geological time periods, and, within these, the species are organized according to habitat--whether they lived on land, in the water, or in the air. There are detailed profiles of 200 dinosaurs and other ancestors of modern animals. Each entry combines a precise, jargon-free description with full-color illustrations, skeletons, and replica models, annotated to showcase the unique features of the species. Maps show where each animal's fossils have been found, and many profiles are supported by photographs to show actual excavation sites.
