About the Author SUSAN H. GRAY is an Associate Professor at the New York Institute of Technology who specializes in computer-human interaction.

Features & Highlights

  • Discover how paleontologists dig deep to discover these remains and how they use them to learn more about the plants and animals that once covered the planet.
  • A True Book: Earth Science series presents fascinating facts and fun activities that will engage the budding earth scientist, while exploring the fields of geology, meteorology, ecology, and more. This series includes an age appropriate (grades 3-5) introduction to curriculum-relevant subjects and a robust resource section that encourages independent study. Millions of years ago, Earth was populated by animals unlike any that we know today. The only way to learn anything about these extinct species is to study the remains they have left behind in Earth's rocks and soil.

not for the young, but good for older for book reports.

this is not for the young, I thought it was in detailed different animal bones that kids would understand, returned because wasn't for a 6yr old, words to big. wish amazon would post photos of insides of books.

This book is great for kids who are into dinosaurs

This book is great for kids who are into dinosaurs. My nephew was so excited (he knows everything about dinosaurs) he called to tell me that there was a dinosaur he had never heard off.

Perfect for little Paleontologists in training!

My son always talks about how this is what he wants to do when he grows up so I thought what a better way to inspire that than to get him a book on it! He will be so happy when he gets it on his birthday, thank you!
