From things that fall from the sky (great green globs!) to the birth of the moon, exploding stars, wooden spaceships, life in deep space, this bird's-eye view of the universe takes us all the way to the end of the solar system and back again. Dinosaurs Aren't Dead exposes an amazing truth: while practically all of the many species of dinosaurs died out spectacularly 65 million years ago, one species did survive, and still lives today - the birds. The book is highly illustrated with lots of black and white cartoons to explain the Big Bang theory, shifting tectonic plates and dinosaur evolution.
