The Secrets of Pterosaurs

''A most impressive book...The illustrations are beautifully done, and the text is fun to read. This book will really open the eyes of people of all ages to the fact that there is more to spectacular prehistoric life than just dinosaurs.''
- Donald Henderson, Curator of Dinosaurs, Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology

''Zhao Chuang and Yang Yang have scoured every corner of the globe to bring every unlikely discovery to life in the PNSO Encyclopedia For Children: The Secrets of Pterosaurs... Each extinct creature comes to life, almost leaping from the page and into the air overhead in a book sure to engage readers of any age.''
- Dr. Joseph Sertich, Paleontologist, Explorer, and Curator of Dinosaurs at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science

'' With their snaggle-tooth smiles, crested skulls, and membranous wings, pterosaurs were some of evolution s most fantastical, and well, let s face it, freakish creatures. The PNSO Encylopedia for Children: The Secrets of Pterosaurs, by Zhao Chuang and Yang Yang, offers a carefully curated and colorful compendium of these incredible animals...Open this book and be transported.''
- Dr. Lindsay Zanno, Head of Paleontology at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, President of The Jurassic Foundation, and Editor of The Complete Dinosaur

'' Much like in the real ancient landscape, in the world of paleo-art pterosaurs are too often relegated to mere sky-candy...No longer! In Zhao and Yang s fabulously illustrated new book, The Secrets of Pterosaurs, it is the dinosaurs which must skulk in the background as the magnificent pterosaurs take center stage!...Wonderful.''
- Dr. Denver Fowler, Curator, Badlands Dinosaur Museum
