Dactyls. Flying Dragons. Pterodactylus. Whatever you call them, they are simply wonderful! Renowned paleontologist Dr. Robert T. Bakker explains how scientists observe fossils and living animals to determine how dactyls flew, walked, climbed, fed, and thought. Also included for the first time ever is his latest, still-unnamed discovery–an unusual dactyl with sharp-edged, backwards curved teeth, nicknamed "Snaggle Tooth."
"Bakker, more than any other scientist, is responsible for the ideas behind the novel and movie Jurassic Park." –New Yorker Magazine
"[Rey’s] fantastic paintings seem to emanate from pure imagination, but he includes the research background for every detail. Children will be captivated and inspired."–Parent’s Choice Foundation
