Learn about dinosaurs on the outside -- their skin, horns, and claws -- and on the inside -- their teeth, brains, and bones. Uncover what scientists already know about these ancient creatures, as well as the new technologies they are using to learn even more. Extraordinary full-color photographs, lively text, and vivid descriptions make this a must-have for dinosaur enthusiasts and budding scientists alike. Curious young readers will delight in this close look at dinosaurs -- from the inside out!

First line

The last living dinosaur died millions of years ago and the only way people can learn about them today is by studying fossils-the remains of bones, eggs, droppings, skin, and footprints.
