<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> A brand-new book in the 2-million-copy Photicular series features images of dinosaurs--from T. Rex to Triceratops--that really move right on the page. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>Journey a hundred million years back in time, and see 8 amazing dinosaurs in motion. <br> A <i>New York Times</i> bestseller! <br> </b> <br> Using unique Photicular(R) technology that's like a 3-D movie on the page, DINOSAUR brings these legendary, long-extinct creatures to life. Each image delivers a rich, immersive visual experience--and the result is breathtaking. There's a herd of giant sauroposeidons, with their impossibly long necks, lumbering across the sun-drenched plains, a threatened velociraptor waving its wildly feathered arms, and more. <p/> Flipping through these pages is transports readers to Earth's distant past. With informative text by science writer Kathy Wollard, it's like a natural history museum but better--experience it for yourself! <p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br> <b>Take a magical journey back in time, to when dinosaurs roamed the earth.</b> <p/> We see their bones in museums. But now, see dinosaurs as if you were traveling on an expedition a hundred million years ago. <p/> Using Unique Photicular(R) technology, <b>DINOSAUR </b>takes an extraordinary leap to bring these legendary and long-extinct creatures back to life. <p/> A herd of giant sauroposeidons, with their impossibly long necks, lumber across the sun-drenched plains. A threatened velociraptor waves its wildly feathered arms. An eoraptor nibbles on a branch. A pair of duck-billed parasaurolophuses feel spring in the air and nuzzle. <p/> Experience it for yourself. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "A visual delight for the prehistoric-obsessed!" --<i>Parents </i> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> Dan Kainen is an artist, designer, and inventor living in New York City. He is the creator of the bestselling Photicular books <i>Safari, Ocean, Polar, Jungle</i>, and <i>Wild</i>. While working with some of the pioneers of holography, Dan created a special spotlight that was used by Soho's Museum of Holography to light holograms. The related field of holography led to Dan's interest in lenticular art and, in turn, after nearly a decade of research and experimentation, to the creation of his "Motion Viewer," his third patent in that field and the inspiration for <i>Safari</i> and the other Photicular books. <p/> Kathy Wollard is a science journalist and the author of the bestselling <i>How Come? Every Kid's Science Questions Explained</i>. Her work has appeared in<i> Newsday</i>, <i>Scholastic</i>, <i> Popular Science</i>, and <i>Family Fun</i> magazines. She lives in rural Ohio.
