Archaeopteryx (The prehistoric world of the dinosaurs) - Softcover

Archaeopteryxwasa pigeon-sized dinosaur with a bird-like skull, but teeth instead of a beak. It was feathered, but had a long reptile-like tail. This strange and fascinating creature was the first 'bird' of prehistory.
This book paints a vivid picture of life as it was lived in the age of the dinosaurs, creatures who ruled the Earth for over 150 million years before mysteriously dying out. Beautiful colour pictures help recreate the world in which Archaeopteryx lived, while detailed explanatory spreads throw light on topics such as evolution, diet, defense and
anatomy, and explain how we can know so much about a world long past.
