Tim's Mountain
by Rutherford MontgomeryLittle Tim and Big Tim agreed that their shack high on the slopes of the Santa Cruz Mountains in California was the finest place in the world to live. Big Tim liked the easy living the woods provided, and Little Tim loved to roam the mountain meadows and thickets, learning the ways of the wild creatures—shy blacktail deer; crafty cougars; smart, fun-loving spotted skunks; and rapier-taloned hawks —who lived there. But the two Tims disagreed about Nubbin, the baby raccoon Little Tim found in a tree stump and brought home for a pet. To Big Tim, Nubbin was just another critter for the pot, or possibly a chance to earn a little cash money to buy a pig. He couldn’t understand Little Tim’s feeling for his clever pet, and secretly he thought the boy was sort of chicken-hearted. So when he sold the raccoon as a lure for Katy Drew’s hunting party, neither he nor anyone else on the mountain was prepared for Little Tim’s fury or for the bold action he took to retrieve his pet.

by Eric RohmannTime Flies , a wordless picture book, is inspired by the theory that birds are the modern relatives of dinosaurs. This story conveys the tale of a bird trapped in a dinosaur exhibit at a natural history museum. Through Eric's use of color, readers can actually see the bird enter into a mouth of a dinosaur, and then escape unscathed.Eric Rohmann's Caldecott Honor-winning debut is now available as a Dragonfly paperback. It is at once a wordless time-travel adventure and a meditation on the scientific theory that dinosaurs were the evolutionary ancestors of birds. The New York Times Book Review called Time Flies "a work of informed imagination and masterly storytelling unobtrusively underpinned by good science...an entirely absorbing narrative made all the more rich by its wordlessness." Kirkus Reviews hailed it as "a splendid debut."

Time Traveler: In Search of Dinosaurs and Other Fossils from Montana to Mongolia
by Michael NovacekTrue stories of fossil-hunting adventures around the globe from “a world-class field scientist [and] a highly entertaining writer” (The American Scholar).Michael Novacek, a world-renowned paleontologist who has discovered important fossils on virtually every continent, is an authority on patterns of evolution and on the relationships among extinct and extant organisms. Time Traveler is his captivating account of how his boyhood enthusiasm for dinosaurs became a lifelong commitment to vanguard science. He takes us with him as he discovers fossils in his own backyard in Los Angeles, then goes looking for them in the high Andes, the black volcanic mountains of Yemen, and the incredibly rich fossil badlands of the Gobi Desert.Wherever Novacek goes, he searches for still-undiscovered evidence of what life was like on Earth millions of years ago. Along the way he has almost drowned, been stung by deadly scorpions, been held at gunpoint by a renegade army, and nearly choked in raging dust storms. Fieldwork is very demanding in a host of unusual, dramatic, sometimes hilarious ways, and Novacek writes of its alluring perils with affection and discernment. But in addition to being an enthralling adventure story, Time Traveler makes sense of many complex themes—about dinosaur evolution, continental drift, mass extinctions, new methods for understanding ancient environments, and the evolutionary secrets of DNA in fossil organisms.Includes photos and illustrations“A superb introduction to paleontology.” —Edward O. Wilson“An engaging book [that] gives us an excellent sense of the way paleontologists have arrived at their world-shaking conclusions.” —The New York Times Book Review“Novacek offers a spellbinding natural history of our planet, as well as the equally fascinating story of how he fell into the profession.” —Publishers Weekly
