Dinosaur tracking




Here's a sneak peak at some cropped illustrations for DinoTracks, a fall 2013 release for  Sylvan Dell Publishing. The author, Rhonda Lucas Donald tells the story in rhyme that can be sung to the tune of Over the River and Through the Woods. She takes you back in time and around the world as you follow the various tracks. These trackways are clues to the dinosaur species, can tell their behavior and movements, what they ate, how and when they lived, etc. Paleoichnology, the study of fossilized tracks and trackways is an amazing science and we hope future dino trackers will enjoy the book.
