In-depth articles and stunning color illustrations
How dinosaurs really lived, what they looked like, and how they sounded
Go beyond the Hollywood myths for a dramatically different perspective based on the latest scientific research
Expert paleontologists provide insight on your favorite dinos and how we learn about them from the fossils they left behind

In this fun and fascinating book, you'll find out how the real dinosaurs lived their lives, what they looked like, how they sounded, and how we know all that!

While popular Hollywood movies have given us a simplistic view of these magnificent creatures, the latest scientific research is changing our assumptions and providing a far different perspective. Rather than being slow, lumbering, and a bit stupid, dinosaurs were smart and nimble-brained—just ask the paleontologists who are peering deep inside the fossilized skulls of these prehistoric animals.

Both kids and adults who are fascinated by dinosaurs will learn how these prehistoric beasts conquered the world, what would have happened if the asteroid hadn't hit Mexico, where the most fossils have been found, what T. rex really looked (and sounded) like, and the modern-day dinosaurs living in your backyard! Experts even weigh in on how we might build our own "Jurassic World" using the latest science.

Loaded with in-depth articles and beautiful color illustrations, including stunning two-page spreads of favorite species, Dinosaurs: The Myth-Busting Guide to Prehistoric Beasts is your ultimate guide to the latest dinosaur research!

Learn all about your favorite dinos:

Tyrannosaurus rex
Archaeopteryx
Triceratops
Velociraptor
Brachiosaurus
Stegosaurus
...and more!

"Packed with facts and illustrations on the latest finds and theories for dinosaur enthusiasts of all ages."
