A good Informational book because it is all based on fact and research to teach us more about extinction, birds, and dinosaurs. The setting is important in this book because it goes back and forth from our time and then back to prehistoric days.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 061819682X, Paperback)

The extinction of dinosaurs some sixty-five million years ago is one of the greatest biological catastrophes in the history of our planet. Yet in recent years, paleontologists have turned up increasing evidence that ancestors of one group of dinosaurs still fly among us: birds. Join Cathy Forster, one of the few female paleontologists working today, on an expedition to Madagascar in search of clues to the mystery of bird evolution.
