The Ultimate Dinosaur Encyclopedia: The amazing visual guide to prehistoric creatures (Ultimate Encyclopedia, 1)

Description:

You've never seen a dinosaur book like this before!
The Ultimate Dinosaur Encyclopedia is a whole new type of encyclopedia, developed in conjunction with cutting-edge 3D-art and science. Using groundbreaking recent research, paleontologist Chris Barker recreates the world of prehistoric giants with photorealistic images more lifelike than any you've seen before.


Use the free AR app to view the pages, and you'll see dinosaurs spring into life with stunning 3D. As well as learning about their appearance and behaviors, the app lets you see them as breathtaking life-size models. Selected pages even have video clips that seem to play right on the page. Short of hopping in a time machine, it's the best way to get close to these amazing animals.


The book explores every era of prehistoric life, beginning with the origins of life in the world's oceans, moving to the first land-based vertebrates, and on to the reign of the dinosaurs and beyond. Based on only the most modern and authentic science, some familiar dinosaurs take on a whole new appearance. See these majestic creatures in their natural habitat, understand their parallels with modern animals, and learn everything about how they moved, ate, fought and hunted.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome AR encyclopedia, app works!

A.A.S. · March 16, 2023

Fun book filled to the brim with dinosaur information as well as large eye popping 3D illustrations of said dinosaurs.Perhaps the most unique aspect of the book is that several pages feature Augmented Reality, or AR. In other words, once you download the free app, you can point your camera at the pages and videos will be pop up and be able to be played. Not only that, certain dinosaurs have a full model display that can be rotated and scaled up and down.That being said, I wish there were more theropod AR dinosaurs. Since I wasn't able to find this information anywhere else, dinosaurs with AR models are:BrachiosaurusStegosaurusAllosaurusArchaeopteryxPteranodonParasaurolophusPachycephalosaurusDakotaraptorAnkylosaurusQuetzalcoatlusTriceratopsI have also confirmed that the app works on a OnePlus Nord in the United States on March 2023.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent illustrations and facts!

My Grandson, loves this book and can’t put it down. He even wants to keep taking it to school, which his Mother has had to decline, so that it doesn’t become damaged. This book is filled with a lot of facts and pictures and the app is amazing.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great gift

Bought this for my niece for Christmas. She really loved it. She really enjoys the app aspect of the book would recommend to anyone with a kid who loves dinosaurs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you want to know

i. · May 28, 2022

This book has everything you want to know about dinosaurs. My grandson recently became obsessed. We can learn with this book for hours together and we haven’t even tried the app yet!We particularly love that it shows the dinosaur in scale with a person so we can think about how big each dinosaur really was.I got this for a almost 3 year old but really for myself. He likes looking at the pictures and I like learning the names (which he already knows) and facts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Way cool!

B.L.C. · April 24, 2024

The media could not be loaded. I'm blown away by the augmented reality by using the app. This is a video in my kitchen. I can't wait for my nephews to play with/read this book. 10/10

5.0 out of 5 stars Such a fun book!

A.|.H.A. · February 20, 2022

I bought this for my Dino loving son (2.5) and glad I took the chance. The app is easy to use, you just have to scan the pages with the entire page in view, not just the “scan here” icon. Once you scan the page you can move your phone and the dinosaur or video will still be available to use (as you can see in my photos). We’ve had this book about a week and will play/read it for hours at a time.

1.0 out of 5 stars App not available in US and some typos

A.P. · December 26, 2021

This book looked really cool for dino obsessed kids like my son. It was advertised as having an AR app. However we discovered that the app is not available in the US. The book has a lot of great info and pics but the app was a big selling point. Also we found some typos in the book ex: pg 30 it says 252 years ago instead of 252 million years ago. There should have been a disclaimer on the book description that the app isn’t available in all countries.
