Inhaltsangabe

A witty set of comparisons that places ancient dinosaurs side by side with modern-day objects.

Dinosaurs were gigantic beasts that walked on Earth long before humans appeared. Everybody knows the dinosaurs were BIG, but how big is BIG? As big as a fire engine? As small as a chicken?

Patrick O'Brien's marvelous illustrations place dinosaurs side by side with modern-day animals, vehicles, and people so that children can easily grasp how the dinosaurs would stack up if they were around today.

Rezensionen

Comparing dinosaurs with familiar items to give a sense of their real size, these oil paintings line up the armored Ankylosaurus with the military tank it resembles and set the petite Compsognathus side-by-side with a mother duck. Ages
