A Little Bit of That Dinosaur
Did you know that you have a little bit of dinosaur in you? And it’s your cousin’s fault. She dared you to pitch a peanut high in the air and catch it in your mouth. You didn’t know it had a nitrogen atom that used to be in the egg of a Hadrosaurus. This humorous story follows a nitrogen atom as it journeys from dry bones to your skull – and beyond! The journey began with Book 1, A Little Bit of Dinosuar, which received a starred Kirkus review. It continued in Book 2, A Little Bit of THIS Dinosaur. In this new story, the amazing circle of life—or the conservation of mass—is again illustrated through a historical look at the Hadrosaurus dinosaur. Sisters Elleen Hutcheson and Darcy Pattison team up again for a new adventure with the circle of life. Each still wonders why their mother taught them to throw food and catch it in their mouths.

Written in a lyrical rhyme, it’s sure to please the language arts folks, too.

This nonfiction picture book for elementary kids chronicles the amazing voyage of Nefertiti, the Spidernaut to the International Space Station and back. She’s a Phiddipus johnsonii, or Johnson jumping spider, native to western United States. Her colorful anatomy—red, black and teal—made for stunning photography and video. In 2012, Nefertitti clocked a record-breaking 100 days in space, during which time she circled Earth about 1584 times, traveling about 41,580,000 miles.
