Thimmesh, Catherine Scaly, Spotted, Feathered, Frilled: How
do we know what dinosaurs really looked like?
56 p. Houghton Mifflin, 2013.
$18. Content: G.
Since the first gigantic bones and skeletons were found,
scientists and naturalists have tried to posit the looks, the actions and the
habits of dinosaurs. The 1890’s were the
first major dinosaur surge, and in the 1970’s dinosaur research was flipped on
its head. New discoveries, new
technology and new methodology on all levels has made it possible to more
accurately portray these ancient beings.
Full of drawings, photographs and reconstructions bring dinosaurs to
life. Excellent science bolsters the
usefulness of this book as a non-fiction supplement to a modern dino book
collection.
