In the style of WHEN BUGS WERE BIG and WHEN FISH GOT FEET this book discusses all the exciting developments of the Triassic Age, from the recovery of the planet from the most deadly mass extinction ever, to the first appearance of the dinosaurs. We also get to meet the first mammals, the first pterosaurs (flying reptiles), the first frogs, a host of predatory marine reptiles, early turtles, and the first coral reefs. With the books' signature blend of humour and clearly presented information, cartoon illustrations help keep the fact-filled material extra fun.

HANNAH BONNER was born and raised on the Spanish island of Mallorca, in an American household. She attended Spanish schools through high school, and then went to Oberlin College in Ohio, where she studied biology and art. Over the years she managed to bring her two loves together by specializing in natural science illustration. In 2000 she illustrated the best-selling Scholastic Science Dictionary. Shortly thereafter she began writing as well as illustrating. This is her third book for National Geographic as both author and illustrator. National Geographic Kids collaborates to put forth fun and interesting non-fiction for kids.
