How can calcium from a dinosaur appear in present-day human anatomy, such as a child's jawbone? You have a little bit of Tyrannosaurus Rex in your jawbone! Don’t believe me? It’s all your mother’s fault! The text begins with prehistoric times, and then ultimately follows a mother who visits the grocery store and buys cheese that contains calcium that used to be in a dinosaur.

These three picture books use an engaging scientific concept to present a goofy yet understandable narrative for younger readers. Each spread features bright, comical cartoon artwork and clear lettering. While the information is told as factual, the illustrations have a fantastical element, such as a child with actual dinosaur parts and a cow riding farm equipment.
