In this interactive book, children are invited to explore our prehistoric planet through rhyming verse and stunning illustrations. With additional text that offers more detailed information and friendly interactive questions, children learn about the amazing creatures that, millions of years ago, stomped or swam where we live today. Lisk Feng s gorgeous art and the standout carousel-format that opens up to create a freestanding prehistoric globe, complete with magnetic closure, makes this a fresh, artful take on a highly popular topic.

Going beyond the typical scope of a typical dinosaur book to explore the wider prehistoric era, this expansive guide transports readers through time, starting at the origins of early life in the oceans billions of years ago, before traveling chronologically through the development of giant crocodile-like lizards, the reign of the dinosaurs, mass extinction events, and the rise of early mammals.

Along the way readers will meet incredible creatures from across the globe, from familiar favorites like Stegosaurus to the bizarre brontothere, an enormous, rhino-like mammal with giant horns over 3 feet long! The book ends by returning to the present to explore the fossil clues that prehistoric creatures left behind. This informative homage to our prehistoric planet is sure to inspire dinosaur-loving children to hunt for fossils and learn more about the early life of our world.
