Imagine standing in China hundreds of millions of years ago, surrounded by a hot jungle and muddy swamps. The roar of dinosaurs breaks the silence as they slowly move with their massive bodies. A young Mamenchisaurus is born into this world, and when it matures, it will be a colossal creature measuring 25 meters long. However, from the moment it hatches, it faces danger. What fate awaits it? The story in this book is like a journey, but not an ordinary one—you don’t need to take a plane, car, or ship. In fact, you can travel through time without leaving your home! Open the book, and time flies by your fingertips: days, years, or even millions of years. Each moment—each stop in your journey—is a new chapter in a dinosaur’s life: childhood in the nest, encountering predators, migrating south, perishing in floods, fossilization, and the discovery of fossils—all telling the story of a dinosaur.
