A long time ago, longer than you can imagine, the earth was full of dinosaurs. They flew in the air, swam in the water, dug underground and walked on the ground. They were everywhere.

"Discover Dinosaurs" invites children on an educational journey among ancient lizards that today may seem unreal. But if you look carefully among today's animals, you can see the origins of dinosaurs in lizards and birds!

Written for everyone fascinated by the huge beasts that once roamed the earth, this book introduces the giant hornless rhinoceros, Indricotherium.

Fortunately, the big brutes were vegetarians. Donald R. Prothero tells their story, from their discovery just a century ago to the latest research.
