The Discovery

Robert Irwin, son of the late “Crocodile Hunter” Steve Irwin, is the co-creator of this series.   In The Discovery, Robert finds a dinosaur fossil in the Australian outback.  He places it in the back pocket of his shorts while updating his reports.  As he stands, he feels a sharp jab and begins to feel dizzy.  When he awakes, he is no longer in the lab but back in the cretaceous age of the dinosaurs.  He gets an up-close and personal view of creatures that lived in prehistoric Australia.  It is one thing to watch dinosaurs hunt or stampede, quite another to be the item on the menu!  A mighty roar sends Robert back to the present day with a new knowledge of life millions of years ago.  Additional notes about the Australovenator dinosaur, prehistoric Australia and the Australian Museum of Natural History are included in the back.  This is a fun, fiction series for those interested in dinosaurs and Australia!
