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.
