Want to know all about the prehistoric epoch and what roamed the earth at that time? Then you should read about dinosaur. Dinosaurs were the enormous voracious reptiles who once roamed the earth in search for food and also a place to stay. These gigantic beasts were obliterating each other to pieces when they were hungry. What I like most about this book is how they describe how they looked and how they acted. If you want to know how they were wiped out from this earth then read this well written book.

I did not like this book. I did not like how it talk about all of the time periods that took place millions of years ago. I did not like how it showed pictures of how the author suspected the earth looked like millions of years ago. I also did not like how it talked about how an asteroid destroyed all dinosaurs. I do not recommend this book.
