Dinosaurs Are Not Extinct
Dinosaurs Are Not Extinct: Real Facts about Real Dinosaurs | Drew Sheneman
Award-winning author-illustrator Drew Sheneman brings budding paleontologists the truth about dinosaurs in this informative and hilarious nonfiction picture book that will teach kids everything they didn't know (and never thought to ask) about their favorite subject--Dinosaurs! A long, long time ago, planet Earth was full of dinosaurs. Giant dinosaurs that ate plants, meat-eating dinosaurs that walked on two feet, dinosaurs with armored frills--all KINDS of dinosaurs. Until an asteroid appeared in the sky. A big one. A hot one. A moving-very-fast one. When it hit, most of the plants and animals on Earth went extinct. It was the end of the dinosaurs . . . . . . Or was it? Actually, the latest research shows that the dinosaurs didn't all go extinct. They're still around us now. In fact, you've probably seen dinosaurs at the park, eaten dinosaurs for dinner, and maybe even cleaned dinosaur poop off your family's car. Who are these dinosaurs living all around us? Find out in this informative, hilarious, and 100 percent factual nonfiction picture book by award-winning author, illustrator, and beloved syndicated cartoonist Drew Sheneman.

This NF book by multi-award-winning author and illustrator and nationally syndicated cartoonist, Drew Sheneman, is informative and engaging. Based on the works of thousands of scientists and reviewed by Dr. Luis M. Chiappe, Gretchen Augustyn Director at the Dinosaur Institute of the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, this visually appealing work brings life to dinosaurs from millions of years ago to those that we encounter daily.

TabathaA As the technical vocabulary may be hard for young students to understand, it would be best presented as a RA, utilizing URL 2. 1 (clarify vocabulary and symbols) and EL 5 (teach technical vocabulary supporting key concepts). Go on a virtual field trip to the Wyoming Dinosaur Center and Dig Site: https://wyomingdinosaurcenter.org/dig-deeper-education-outreach/teacher-resource... for a fun text to world experience. 4y

DrSpalding When you mentioned the natural history Museum in your summary and then...what a great idea to take a virtual field trip after reading aloud this book. Excellent idea to clarify vocabulary and teach technical vocabulary when utilizing nonfiction text. 4y
