Titanosaur: Discovering the World’s Largest Dinosaur
José Luis Carballido, Diego Pol, illustrated by Florencia Gigena
Paleontologists Diego and José investigate titanosaur fossils in Patagonia, Argentina. After a gaucho finds a huge femur, they return with a team to excavate and preserve the remains. The dig yields more than 180 bones from seven dinosaurs, including a plant-eating titanosaur that would have been 122 feet long in life. The book also covers field tools, estimating body mass, fossil casting and transport, and life at an excavation camp, alongside photos and illustrations.
