5.0 out of 5 stars Men beetwen dinosaurs, March 27, 2000

By	Guilherme Luck (Curitiba, Brazil) - See all my reviews

Norman's Dinosaur! brings the Paleontology to life by telling this science history with vivid descriptions of the first dinosaur fossil hunts and interpretations in the first charpters, so the reader may follow how the facts and toughts about the dinosaurs evolved and understand their importance to the modern man and it`s an almost unique approach. Norman proceeds by showing how the dinos arose, how they lived, their classification and some extinction hypotesis. The book is very well written and beautifully ilustrated, presenting scientific information for all kinds of readers that whant a better general view, except if you are looking for a real schoolar text. Due to all of it, it is an excellent book by this price and a must for everyone who would like to know more about the terrible lizards.
