4-6Edge Books: Dinosaur Wars series.
You might call this "fantasy dinosaur wars" since the combatants in both books lived at different times. These scenarios pitting the two title dinosaurs against one another reveal their size, agility, strength, speed, weapons, attack style, and defenses. Absurd premise aside, the details of the play-by-play are fascinating and instructive. With toothy action sketches ("Get Ready to Rumble") and very brief sidebars. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Edge Books: Dinosaur Wars titles: Triceratops vs. Stegosaurus and Tyrannosaurus Rex vs. Velociraptor.
