This edition is designed for libraries; coloring pages are available by download. A novel for middle grade readers. A year in the life of Pachyrhinosaurus and other dinosaurs living on the North Slope of Alaska seventy thousand years ago. They lived near each other and migrated together in a loose-knit community. The story follows Pakky as she experiences her first winter and learns about snow and ice. She meets other species of dinosaurs and is injured by ravenous Dromaeosaurus. In the spring, she migrates with her mother, Matriarch, back to their summer feeding ground. In her first year, she learns a life cycle. She discovers that green which makes her food so good, during the time of constant light, hides in the lights in the sky during the time of constant dark, while they starve. She learns green returns during the time of light-moving-to-constant light. A reason for hope when starving.
Autorenporträt
Bonnye Matthews, a prolific, eclectic author, sought a break after writing a five-volume novel series, a three-volume novella series, a paradigm booklet, and other books between 2013 and 2018. Each of those books earned an award. Hearing about Arctic dinosaurs walking in snow drew her to a subject that had never held an attraction for her. Wondering how they survived Arctic winters had her hooked. A confirmed workaholic, Matthews' idea of a break was something new to work on, something challenging, demanding, consuming-not a trip to a resort or a time spent doing nothing. She found it, and it turned into Arctic Dinosaurs of Alaska, a dinosaur book for older children to pique their curiosity and intellectual pursuit. Having taught in public school and homeschooling a daughter, her book was fiction but also it is one you could call a well-disguised textbook, because the fiction nests in non-fiction.
