520    "A millipede the size of a basketball player? A pit-bull-
       sized scorpion? It's hard to believe, but such mega-
       critters once lived on our planet. In this peek into 
       prehistory, award-winning science writer Helaine Becker 
       introduces us to nine of these terrifying giants. You'll 
       discover when and where they lived, how they grew to their
       mega-sizes and what (thankfully!) caused their extinction.
       On each spread, a highly realistic illustration shows us 
       what the animal looked like, in its habitat, based on 
       fossil evidence. Each spread is chock-full of visual 
       information, including a size chart that shows how big the
       animal could grow, a timeline placing the animal in its 
       geological period and a map of where its fossils have been
       discovered. Sidebars throughout expand on scientific and 
       historical concepts, such as adaptation and the Permian 
       extinction. Written to engage a hi-lo (high interest, low 
       reading level) audience, Megabugs is sure to satisfy dino-
       lovers, bug-lovers and kids fascinated by prehistoric 
       life."--|cProvided by publisher.
