This mind-blowing feast for the eye uses photo-realistic, computer-generated images to illustrate what dinosaurs might have looked like in their natural environment. Complementing the extraordinary images is an exciting, scientifically accurate story about a young ankylosaur (a plant-eating, heavy-plated dinosaur) living along the banks of a grassy lake. When he encounters an old ankylosaur, he gently endeavours to make contact, only to be rebuffed. Then a T. rex attacks, and the youngster knows the old dinosaur is in grave danger. Will the T. rex triumph? It looks that way, until the young ankylosaur comes to the rescue, tail club swinging. Ankylosaur Attack is book one in the Tales of Prehistoric Life series. Dramatic stories + eyepopping visuals = a surefire hit with young dinosaur lovers.

This book is a great ready for children who love dinosaurs. It is not only an interesting read, but informative and children will learn more about the two dinosaurs in the book, Ankylosaurs and T-Rex.

The book follows a young ankylosaur as he journeys out into the world. He is hungry and looking for food. When he finds another ankylosaur, things get tense. The new ankylosaur is older and wants to fight, but a T-Rex attacks him from behind! The old ankylosaur cannot defend himself and it's the young ankylosaur to the rescue!

With a wonderful story that shares how we can help each other, even if we are scared, this book is sure to please readers of all ages. And what a great way to teach children about being brave, even when we don't want to.
