(3) K-3 Illustrated by Phil Wilson. The life cycle of the Pteranodon, an ancient flying reptile, is described accurately and clearly in this fictionalization focusing on the perils faced by this now-extinct creature. Pteranodon is attacked by dinosaur and marine reptile predators but manages to survive to father his own offspring. Full-page, sharply etched illustrations provide vivid images of the animals and action.
