Everyone knows that Tyrannosaurus rex is the huge dinosaur with sharp claws and tiny arms. But T. rex is not the only tyrannosaur that existed in prehistoric times. In the last fifteen years, scientists have found many tyrannosaurs, including one with a really long pointy nose. The coauthor of this book, Dr. Steve Brusatte, went to China in order to help ID the dinosaur that he would give the nickname Pinocchio Rex!

This Level 2 reader gives an overview of the exciting new discoveries in the land of tyrannosaurs. The book shows how tyrannosaurs evolved-from the tiny Dilong to the enormous T. rex. It includes an infographic, activity, and glossary, as well as Dr. Steve Says sidebars that give readers insight into what it felt like for Dr. Steve to be involved with the discovery of P. Rex!
