K-3I Can Read Book series.
Illustrated by
Phil Wilson.
Every child knows about dinosaurs, but fewer know about prehistoric mammals like the hyracotherium or the macrauchenia. A brief factual introduction sets the scene, then short passages describe eleven creatures that evolved after the dinosaurs' demise (including Homo sapiens). Each double-page spread includes a pronunciation guide and presents interesting facts about the mammal. Full-color illustrations show these amazing creatures in action.
