    Tim Bradley

    Paperback (Arbordale Publishing, Jan. 21, 2020)
    What would it be like to live as a dinosaur? Young readers will discover that dinosaur lives had many similarities to present-day animals: they hatched, ran, hunted, hid from predators, and grew to adulthood.

Repetitive sight words make this a great story for beginning readers and dinosaur enthusiasts alike.
