Summary:
"Often, when kids think about dinosaurs, they think huge prehistoric creatures shaking the ground as they walk, monstrous battles between animals that are thousands of pounds, and the fierce roars shown in the movies. But some dinosaurs were small, no bigger than a house pet! In this book, readers learn about 11 dinosaurs that didn't have size on their side, but found a way to survive ancient Earth anyway. Their defenses, body adaptations, diet, and fossils are discussed in the main content, and a vital statistics chart shows when and where they lived at a glance."-- Provided by publisher.
