Step back in time 124 million years to Liaoning, China, and see what life was like in this ancient ecosystem. Follow several recently discovered dinosaur species through a typical day, as they feed, fight, hunt, and try to survive.

Scientific sculptor and illustrator Gregory Wenzel takes readers inside the world of the feathered dinosaurs and sheds light on the link betweeen dinosaurs and birds.
Gregory is an illustrator specializing in natural science subjects. His first illustrated science book, a book about dinosaurs for G.P. Putnam Sons, was done in 1982. Since then Gregory has worked on many projects for clients ranging from book and magazine publishers to natural history museums to television. Some of his jobs have called on him to provide science art for The Tonight Show, paintings to be used as posters for Newbridge Communications, or illustrations for Michael Crichton's THE LOST WORLD.
