Description

Triceratops is one of the best-known dinosaurs because it was such an unusual-looking creature. At the back of its huge head it had a hard bony shield, with a frilly edge. Paleontologists have found out what Triceratops looked like by studying fossils from millions of years ago. They have built skeletons and made models to show us.

Author description

Series editor and author of the Red Rocket reading program, Pam Holden has more than 30 years specialist experience in literacy. As a Reading Recovery teacher she has worked one-to-one with hundreds of children struggling with literacy. Pam's pupils have also included those approaching English as a second language, and children who are advanced and require extension. This experience has given the author a rare insight into the literacy process and has enabled her to identify many key elements that consistently block children's progress.
