Touch, feel, and discover the incredible world of dinosaurs

This stunning interactive book brings ten record-breaking dinosaurs to life through an engaging guessing game that future palaeontologists will adore. Each prehistoric creature is introduced through intriguing clues and boastful hints, inviting children to examine touch-and-feel skeletons before revealing the answers in spectacular page-turn reveals featuring vibrant scenic habitats.

Created by the team behind the global bestseller Book of Bones, this beautifully crafted hardback combines Gabrielle Balkan's witty, informative writing with Sam Brewster's award-winning illustrations. Children discover which dinosaur had the toughest armour, the sharpest eyesight, the biggest belly, and the spikiest tail, learning about the fascinating connection between anatomy and behaviour through fun, relatable facts.

The showstopping final pages make a clever connection between these ten extinct dinosaurs and their contemporary counterparts, helping children understand how prehistoric life connects to the natural world today. Complete with a letter from the author, 24-word glossary, species index, and a 'Discover More' section highlighting additional resources for the dinosaur-curious.

Suitable for children aged 5-8 years.

Pages: 48 pages with 25 illustrations
