Publisher's Summary

Think you know about dinosaurs? Think again! New York Times best-selling and award-winning author Steve Brusatte brings young scientists and listeners everywhere into his world of massive herbivores and fearsome predators, daily unexpected discoveries, and all the new science used to learn about some of the world’s oldest beings.

Even though the dinosaurs roamed the earth millions of years ago, we’re still piecing together new information about these ancient animals.

Did you know that, on average, a new species of dinosaur is discovered every single week? Or that many dinosaurs had feathers? Or that there are even modern-day dinosaurs walking around right now

New York Times best-selling author and acclaimed paleontologist Steve Brusatte writes about all the new discoveries he and his colleagues have made that help us better understand - and marvel at - these remarkable reptiles.

A strong choice for the classroom and for independent reading, and a great source for reports using information direct from an expert in the field.

Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook. 

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Enjoyable Book. Narration was rough at first.

I enjoyed the story, the narrator was anissue early on until I sped up the speech. Narrator talked so slow until I did that I wasn't sure I could keep going. Sounded like he was talking to a group of First graders it was so slow and deliberate.

Don't let my complaint stop you from listening g. you just might want to speed up the narration.

Decent reading minutes some annoying quirks

Disliked the character foreign accents that was your stereotypical racial caricature. Annoying, bordered on offensive.
