Description
In the Badlands of Montana, many stories are waiting to be told – about Triceratops and Ankylosaurus and ancient crocodiles. There, scientists search for the bones of animals that lived millions of years ago. In Dinosaur Dig, Kathryn Lasky and Christopher G. Knight, the award-winning writer-and-photographer team, describe the dirty, sweaty, and exciting job they and five other families perform as they search for fossils in the Badlands. Dinosaur Dig is a feast of keen observation, magnificent photography, and information about Earth’s ancient past. Like any good story, it captures expectations and disappointments, close calls, and finally success as the diggers uncover and race to preserve the bones of a creature that died 67 million years ago.
