A Moment in Time with Troodon

The first book in the series, A Moment in Time with Troodon begins Curator of Dinosaurs at the Tyrell Museum Dr. Phil J. Currie`s action-packed adventures about dino life millions of years ago. Part fiction, part fact, Eric. P. Felber and Currie`s story describes the life, habits and behaviour of the lizard-like Troodon. Featuring 10 full-page, full-colour and expertly rendered illustrations by renowned dinosaur artist Jan Sovak, this oversize story-and-reference book offers an exciting, in-the-moment glimpse into prehistoric life.

In this insightful, dramatically illustrated new series, world-renowned palaeontologist Philip J. Currie, with co-authors Eva Koppelhus and Eric P. Felber, employs the fossil record to craft stories that encourage readers to explore a day in the life of a creature from Earth's ancient past.

Fossil evidence springs to life on the page as we follow the long-distance migration of Centrosaurs. Observe the pack hunter Albertosaurus as it searches for migrating dinosaurs. Follow the struggle of Sinosauropteryx to survive a volcano eruption. Follow Troodon's fight to nurture her young and teach them survival skills.

The conclusion of each book presents the fossil evidence from which each story has been developed.

The authors' imaginative but scientifically accurate approach to storytelling is perfectly complemented by 17-23 full-color illustrations from award-winning science illustrator Jan Sovak.
