Scientific Classification
  Kingdom Animalia
  Phylum Chordata
  Class Sauropsida
  Superorder Dinosauria
  Order Saurischia
  Suborder Theropoda
  Family Dilophosauridae
  Genus Cryolophosaurus
Cryolophosaurus was a carnivore (meat-eater) that lived in the Antarctic during the early Jurassic period, between about 196 and 190 million years ago.

Fossils of Cryolophosaurus were found in rocky outcroppings near the Beardmore Glacier in Antarctica, which is 13,000 feet (4,000 meters) above sea-level, and today lies just 400 miles (650 kilometers) from the South pole. At the time it lived, Antarctica was slightly further North, and so its position at the time would perhaps have been around 1000 miles (1,650 kilometers) from the South pole. In any case, this find (along with a number of other fossils found nearby, which include other dinosaurs, a pterosaur, and a Tritylodon mammal-like reptile, as well as fossilized tree trunks), seems to provide support to the theory that the Jurassic period was much warmer than today, and the Antarctic had forests, even at high altitudes.

Cryolophosaurus was about 20 to 26 feet (6 to 8 meters) long, and probably weighed around 1,100 pounds (500 kilograms).

Like its relative, Dilophosaurus, Cryolophosaurus had a crest on its skull. The unusual nature of its crested, caused Cryolophosaurus to gain the nickname "Elvisaurus", based on its supposed resemblance to one of Elvis Presley's hairstyles.

Product Description:
No other continent on Earth has undergone such radical environmental changes as Antarctica. In its transition from rich biodiversity to the barren, cold land of blizzards we see today, Antarctica provides a dramatic case study of how subtle changes in continental positioning can affect living communities, and how rapidly catastrophic changes can come about.

Frozen in Time presents a comprehensive overview of the fossil record of Antarctica framed within its changing environmental settings, providing a window into a past time and environment on the continent. It reconstructs Antarctica’s evolving animal and plant communities as accurately as the fossil record permits.

The story of how fossils were first discovered in Antarctica is a triumph of human endeavor. It
continues today with modern expeditions going out to remote sites every year to fill in more of the missing parts of the continent’s great jigsaw of life.

KEY FEATURES
* Copiously illustrated with magnificent color images
* Provides an overview of the discovery and exploration of Antarctica
* Gives a clear guide to the palaeontology of Antarctica
* Includes contemporary issues of heritage and preservation
* Outlines the possible major impacts of climate change

Product Description:
The bestselling, award-winning team of Yolen and Teague are back with another playful dinosaur tale--a third full-length picture book about how dinosaurs behave at mealtime.

"¿Qué hace un dinosaurio durante la comida?
¿Eructa, hace ruidos y groserías?
¿Tira el cereal y la taza arroja
y espera que alguien luego la recoja?"

Al igual que los chicos, los dinosaurios tardan en aprender a comportarse en la mesa. Sin embargo, con la ayuda de papá y mamá, estos pequeños dinosaurios llegan a comer todo con una sonrisa y buena disposición. Como en sus libros anteriores, Yolen y Teague recrean la tendencia natural al desorden de los chicos mediante rimas juguetonas y dibujos muy divertidos.
