Do You Know Dinos?: Stegosaurus by Helen Greathead (author) and Mike Spoor (illustrator)

Stegosaurus is one of the top five dinosaurs in terms of its popularity with children. That’s probably because it looks so strange! This book will attempting to establish exactly what those plates on its back were for. There’ll be lots of information on how Stegosaurus lived, including: how it defended itself; why it was a picky eater and why scientists thought it had two brains!

As these books are aimed at 5-7 year olds – the greatest dinosaur enthusiasts of all – the language and the explanation will be simple and fun, with plenty of illustrations to make explanations really clear.

Author/Illustrator

Mike Spoor

Mike Spoor grew up in Northumberland and it was during holidays to the Lake District with his grandparents that he first found a love for drawing. After attending Art College and working as a landscape architect Mike trained as a teacher. He moved to Australia and spent his time flying all over the country to run ceramics workshops. Now, after swapping ceramics for illustration, Mike is back in England and has illustrated many hundreds of books. He considers himself a craftsman rather than a ‘serious’ artist because he is best at drawing scratchy unfinished humorous ideas.
