Re: Albertosaurus and Edmontosaurus

[Joe Ramirez <jramire@ibm.net>]

There are many good books out there with information on these   
well-known dinosaurs.  Might I suggest *The Dinosaur Society's Dinosaur   
Encyclopedia* by Don Lessem and Donald Glut?  It's a helpful reference   
work that you will be able to use frequently, and is not unintelligible   
to a nonscientist.  (How's that for evasive phrasing?)  I'm sure others   
here will suggest some excellent books that are suitable for children,   
but since you have Internet access, perhaps you should try the World   
Wide Web.  (I assume you have a Web "browser" such as Netscape, Mosaic,   
IBM WebExplorer, etc.)  The Royal Tyrrell Museum in Alberta has an   
excellent on-line tour at: 
http://freenet.calgary.ab.ca/science/tyrrell/ 
Since the Albertosaurus is the "patron" of this museum, this is a good   
place to start.  There are other fine dino pages on the Web elsewhere;   
try doing a search with Yahoo, WebCrawler, etc. 
 
Good luck.
