The Newest and Coolest Dinosaurs

Steve Pitt is a Toronto-based freelance writer and an award-winning journalist. He has written many young adult and children's books, including Day of the Flying Fox: The True Story of World War II Pilot Charley Fox.

This book features the 15 latest dinosaur discoveries unearthed by
scientists around the world. Among the newcomers are the
cryolophosaurus, a 6.5-metre-long carnivore whose flashy head crest
earned it the nickname “Elvisaurus”; the gasparinisaura, a
poodle-sized iguanodont that made the perfect between-meal snack for
large meat-eaters on the go, and a dozen others including abelisaurus,
achelousaurus, mymoorapelta, sinosauropteryx, and xenotarosaurus. The
text is both informal and informative.

Active imaginations will be especially stimulated by Jan Sovak’s
exceptional illustrations; they seem to be on the verge of spitting dust
in the reader’s face. Highly recommended.
