Dinosaurs are really famous. We see them in movies. We read about them in books and magazines. There are even dinosaur action figures and cuddly toys. This is pretty impressive, especially when you think that the last land-living dinosaurs died out 66 million years ago! This book will take you on a visit to the dinosaur museum, where you'll discover:
- the ways that dinosaurs are classified and what their names mean
- how people identify dinosaurs from their fossils
- the mistakes people have made about dinosaurs
- what happened to the dinosaurs and whether they still exist today....
