Get a prey's-eye view of a fearsome Allosaurus, take a too-close-for-comfort look at an Oviraptor's bone-crushing jaws, and see what it would be like to soar, wing-to-wing, with a flock of Pterodactylus.
Providing a zoomed-in encounter with dozens of the most incredible creatures ever to walk, stalk, swim, or fly across the prehistoric planet, Dinosaurs Eye to Eye is packed with awesome imagery that brings children face-to-face with dinosaurs and other phenomenal prehistoric creatures.
Review: Designed in the vein of Animals Up Close, this oversize reference book features striking digital images of dinosaurs, along with abundant information about them and the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods in which they thrived. Readers can get up close and personal with a variety of species: a web-footed Nothosaurus's dimpled skin looks real enough to touch, and the blue and red feathers of a Deinonychus seem as though they could ripple in the wind. Action scenes like that of Cryolophosaurus looming over the splayed corpse of a plant-eating dinosaur, offer visual excitement, while diagrams, sidebars with dino-stats, and photographs of fossils emphasize the educational.
