Global Warming and the Dinosaurs by Caroline Arnold


Arnold, Caroline Global Warming and the Dinosaurs, illustrated by Laurie Caple. 40 pgs. Clarion Books, 2009. $17.00. Language - G; Sexual Content - G; Violence - G. Dinosaurs are usually thought to have lived in warm climates. This book proves otherwise. Dinosaur skeletons were found in Alaska, Antarctica, Australia and more. This book talks about the dinosaurs survived the winter, stayed warm and were able to see in the dark. It talks about many different kinds of dinosaurs as well. Since we are having to deal with global warming today, the dinosaur fossils help scientists understand what a warmer Earth was like a long time ago. This was a very informative book, but it was pretty long for a picture book. EL - ADVISABLE. Anna Mattheus, Elementary Teacher.
