This Side of Wild
Author: Gary Paulsen
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1481451529
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
In the National Book Award longlist book This Side of Wild, Newbery Honor–winning author Gary Paulsen shares surprising true stories about his relationship with animals, highlighting their compassion, intellect, intuition, and sense of adventure. Gary Paulsen is an adventurer who competed in two Iditarods, survived the Minnesota wilderness, and climbed the Bighorns. None of this would have been possible without his truest companions: his animals. Sled dogs rescued him in Alaska, a sickened poodle guarded his well-being, and a horse led him across a desert. Through his interactions with dogs, horses, birds, and more, Gary has been struck with the belief that animals know more than we may fathom. His understanding and admiration of animals is well known, and in This Side of Wild, which has taken a lifetime to write, he proves the ways in which they have taught him to be a better person.

Book Description
Dinosaurs have filled us with wonder since the first monstrous bones were pulled from the earth thousands of years ago. For centuries, we imagined dinosaurs as giant, clumsy brutes--but science has since revealed them to be so much more.

Of course, science cannot tell us how they behaved or how they interacted with their environments. For that, we need our imaginations. The Amazing World of Dinosaurs is an intersection where imagination and knowledge meet. It features James Kuether's breathtaking dinosaur paleoart that accurately reflects our current knowledge. These captivating images are paired with Kuether's research and insights, which make dinosaurs and the Mesozoic Era accessible to anyone. From famous creatures like Tyrannosaurus rex to lesser-known species such as Monolophosaurus, dinosaurs continue to spark the imaginations of children and adults everywhere. Let The Amazing World of Dinosaurs guide you through this incredible time in history.
