Tyrannosaurus Rex and Its Kin: The Mesozoic Monsters

Sattler, the authoritative and popular creator of numerous books on prehistoric monsters, turns her attentions to carnosaurs, the dangerous and massive flesh-eating monsters that dominated the Mesozoic Era. In no-nonsense prose, Sattler carefully lays out the most current information on the habitats, habits and attributes of Tyrannosaurus Rex and its equally dangerous, though lesser-known, relatives. Carnosaur-crazy kids will pore over the fact-filled pages, pausing over the arresting and equally informative watercolor illustrations by Powzyk ( Tracking Wild Chimpanzees ). This superior science book is enhanced by an easily understood time-line of the Mesozoic Era and a useful index and pronunciation guide. Ages 8-12. (May)
