Text, Questions & Answers

Long, long ago, before your grandparents or even your great grandparents were born, giant creatures roamed our planet. These were called dinosaurs! Dinosaurs were big, some even as tall as a five-story building. There were meat-eating dinos like Tyrannosaurus rex, and plant-eating ones like Brachiosaurus. Some, like Triceratops, had large horns on their heads. But do you know what happened to these giants? They disappeared! A big rock from space hit Earth and caused a lot of changes, making it difficult for dinosaurs to survive. This is how the rule of the dinosaurs ended. Interesting, isn't it?
