Leaf-eating dinosaurs were among the many dinosaurs that lived millions of years ago. Investigate how these dinosaurs lived and survived, and compare them to modern animals.
"The eating habit of these eight dinosaurs was munching and crunching on leaves and twigs. Read and find out about the plant-eating dinosaurs that lived more than 65 million years ago. In the sidebar of each section, the eating habit of the dinosaur is compared with a modern-day animal. For instance, Iguanodon, like the hippopotamus of today, ate the plants in the swamplands. There are color illustrations and photographs throughout the book. Readers will find a pronunciation guide for the dinosaur’s name at the start of each section. There is a scale to compare the size of the dinosaur with a chicken, person, or elephant. For dinosaur enthusiasts, there is a list of additional books on dinosaurs along with the FactHound website for more information. Furthermore, this book is part of the “Dinosaur Find: Eating Habits” series; the books in the series have a similar organization. Young children may benefit from adult guidance to understand how to use informational text features." - Children's Literature Comprehensive Database
