You already know the mighty T-Rex and the Apatosaurus, but have you heard of the Baryonyx, the Jobaria, and the Majungatholus? Get out your pencils and prepare to meet some of the more unusual sauruses ever! For example, the gigantic Acrocanthosaurus had extra-tall spines on its back while the flying Iberomesornis was only the size of a sparrow. All the dinosaurs shown here were discovered after 1990-or they are ones for which paleontologists have recently found good new skeletons. By connecting the dots and forming the pictures, you can learn about these amazing animals. (Color them in when you're done.) And, don't forget to look on the labeled map to find out where they lived, and the timeline to see when!

Children who love these fabulous creatures (and what kid doesn’t?) will be delighted to find more than just the same old dinos in this super collection of 35-plus saurus dot-to-dots. Instead of just the familiar Diplodocus, Triceratops, and Tyrannosaurus, the species here include the Achelousaurus, with rough, bumpy knobs on its nose and over its eyes; the Eotyrannus, or “Dawn Tyrant”, one of the earliest ancestors of the giant meat-eating tyrannosaurs; and the Neimongosaurus, whose fossils were recently found in China. Accompanying each dot-to-dot are facts on the dinosaur’s name, size, when and where it lived, and more. Best of all, when kids have finished connecting the dots, they can take their crayons and color in the pictures however they like because no one knows what colors these animals really were.

Aller Retour New York is truly vintage Henry Miller, written during his most creative period, between Tropic of Cancer (1934) and Tropic of Capricorn (1939). Aller Retour New York is truly vintage Henry Miller, written during his most creative period, between Tropic of Cancer (1934) and Tropic of Capricorn (1939). Miller always said that his best writing was in his letters, and this unbuttoned missive to his friend Alfred Perles is not only his longest (nearly 80 pages!) but his best—an exuberant, rambling, episodic, humorous account of his visit to New York in 1935 and return to Europe aboard a Dutch ship. Despite its high repute among Miller devotees, Aller Retour New York has never been easy to find. It was first brought out in Paris in 1935 in a limited edition, and a second edition, “Printed for Private Circulation Only,” was issued in the United States ten years later. It is now available in paperback as a Revived Modern Classic, with an introduction by George Wickes that illuminates the people and personal circumstances which inform Aller Retour New York.
