'Discover a world of prehistoric adventure and dinosaurs with Robert Irwin!
After discovering a dinosaur fossil in outback Queensland, Robert stumbles upon a way to travel back to the Australian age of dinosaurs, 95 million years ago! But dodging a dinosaur stampede isn't Robert's biggest problem. If he can survive the day, how will Robert find his way home?' (Publisher's blurb)
'The Irwins are in Texas, doing some crocodilian research on the American Alligator. Robert knows that the ancient deinosuchus roamed around these parts, and when his fossil transports him back in time, he gets to see firsthand the prehistoric predator take on an albertasaurus, and win!' (Publisher's blurb)
'Robert and his best friend Riley are visiting the Canadian badlands in Alberta with Riley's Uncle Nate. The badlands are home to over 35 different species of dinosaur fossils.
Robert and Riley get pulled back in time to Alberta, Canada during the Late Cretaceous period, to find a heavily armoured euoplocephalus trapped in vines. The rescue doesn't go according to plan when a ferocious gorgosaurus arrives on the scene, looking for a snack!' (Publisher's blurb)
'While spending time with the Cassowaries at Australia Zoo, Robert can't help but think of the feathered dinosaurs. How close are the ostrich and cassowary to their dinosaur ancestors? Zip back to prehistoric China, where feathered dinosaurs, such as the Yutyrannus huali,roamed the land.
And Robert gets to see one of his favourite 'saurs, the Micropahycephalosaurs. He's small in stature but sure is big in personality!' (Publisher's blurb)
