Description
"Sea Monsters: The Official Pop-Up Book" uses amazing pop-up illustrations and foldouts to introduce kids to the most ferocious animals that ever swam and walked the Earth. Breathtaking paper-engineered images of giant sharks, enormous squids, massive marine reptiles, and other creatures from the Late Cretaceous Era, 80 million years ago, leap off the page to thrill readers of all ages. Based on cutting-edge imagery featuring computer-generated creatures, the spectacular effects include a 3-dimensional Tylosaurus - a whale-size predator - and Styxosaurus, a stealthy hunter with a 20-foot-long neck. Featuring fascinating sidebars about underwater paleontology and cool tidbits about fossil hunters, "Sea Monsters: The Official Pop-Up Book" will intrigue and entertain those who have seen the movie as well as those who haven't.
