Changing ideas about dinosaurs

From ancient Chinese interpretations of dinosaur remains to early scientific theories about how these enormous creatures moved, the book traces how explanations have shifted over time. Its focus is not only on dinosaurs, but on how theories take shape—and how new discoveries can challenge or overturn them. The examples make changing scientific understanding the organizing thread of this brief nonfiction book for young readers.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures
  • Young readers curious about how scientific ideas change with new discoveries

Book overview

The ancient Chinese thought they were magical dragons. Scientists thought they could only float on water since they were so big. Boy, were they wrong! Even today, notions about dinosaurs are being revised as new discoveries are made. This lively book offers fascinating insight into how certain theories were formulated, and then how those theories were proved or disproved.
