Paleontology is the study of ancient life including dinosaurs and prehistoric plants and animals. Scientists use fossil evidence to learn about how these organisms have evolved over time.
1000 FACTS ABOUT DINOSAURS, FOSSILS and PREHISTORIC LIFE by Patricia Daniels is filled with fascinating information for budding paleontologists. Each two-page spread focuses on a specific theme and provides facts, photographs or illustrations to bring the information to life for young readers.
