Raptor Pack: Step Into Reading 5 (Step into Reading)

by Robert T. Bakker

Mike Skrepnick (Illustrator)

Paleontologist Robert T. Bakker tells the amazing story of a day in the life of a pack of Deinonychus
(a.k.a.“raptor”) dinosaurs. Readers follow the creatures as they single out, kill, and devour an injured tenontosaur; climb up into a tree; fall asleep; and are themselves stalked by a giant predator. Includes an explanation of how scientists study rocks and minerals; fossil roots, claws, teeth, and bones; and modern predators to understand raptor behavior.

We checked this one put from the library. It was on recommendation of the Wayfarers Ancients Curricula. I'm always curious which way a book on prehistoric times will tell it and this was a Christian author. I love the way he presents the science.

Starting with I'm going to tell you a story and tell you why we think it's true. And ending with the influence that if you follow the science breadcrumbs you can methodically prove the past. This is a good influential one to show kids the possibility of a scientific adventure of a professional field.

I wish the would make this one available as a Kindle copy.
