About the Book

Did you know that you have a little bit of dinosaur in you?

This humorous story follows a nitrogen atom as it journeys from dry bones to your skull - and beyond!

Book Synopsis

Dinosaur books for 6-8 year old readers don't get better than this clever science adventure! When lightning splits nitrogen atoms during a storm, one atom begins an amazing journey through a Hadrosaurus, into a fossilized egg, through peanut plants, and finally into YOUR skull. This fun STEM book makes the nitrogen cycle easy to understand.

Your young paleontologist will love following the nitrogen atom's path through millions of years. Watch it get absorbed by ancient plants, eaten by a mother Hadrosaurus, and trapped in a dinosaur egg fossil. Then see how it eventually becomes part of peanuts at a baseball game - where a dare from a cousin leads to the nitrogen becoming part of a child's bones!

With humor, simple science explanations, and colorful illustrations, this educational picture book proves that atoms last forever. Kids will be thrilled to learn they really are made of dinosaur atoms! Perfect for elementary science lessons about matter, atoms, and how nature recycles. Great for dinosaur-obsessed kids who love learning fun science facts.

Help kids think about fossils and dinosaurs and understand their world better.
