There were a lot of dinos on the earth long ago. We have found their bones.

Two small colorful dinosaurs walking near traditional yurt tents on a gray steppe landscape with mountains in the background.

For a brief time, let's say that dinos did not die...

Page 3
A small orange and yellow dinosaur standing alone in a playground with swings and a slide, drawn in grayscale background.

Just like how we see birds at the park, there would be dinos on the slide and swings.

Page 4
Two dinosaurs at a city crosswalk, one yellow running across and one pink riding a blue scooter, in a modern urban setting.

Or would they be smart and live by our side?

Page 5
Two large dinosaurs window shopping at a store in a city, looking at their reflections while standing on a sidewalk near a crosswalk.

Would they go to the shops and choose what to buy?

Page 6
A large blue and orange pterosaur flying over power lines and telephone poles in a rural landscape with mountains.

Or would they break the things that we have made?

Page 7
A massive blue-green dinosaur with spines standing in a sports stadium, its long neck curving down near bleachers and a scoreboard.

Would they stomp out on fields and make games come to a halt?

A large orange triceratops eating leafy greens from an open refrigerator in a modern kitchen with gray cabinets.

If they found our food, there would be none left.

A huge feathered therizinosaurus with long claws standing in a bedroom, holding a piece of clothing near a closet and bed.

In fact, they would go all through our homes and take our things.

Various colorful dinosaurs walking through a modern city street with buildings, including a large red brachiosaurus, green hadrosaur, and a pterosaur flying overhead.

The whole world would be a mess! We could not live like we do now.

Three paleontologists excavating a dinosaur skeleton fossil at a dig site, with one taking photos, one brushing bones, and one making notes.

Dinos are cool, but the chief thing to take from this is that we could not live side by side.

Page 12
Four children playing with dinosaur toys, including a boy in a wheelchair, a girl holding a pterosaur, and others with dinosaur puzzles and books.

But we can wield tools and toys that can tell us what dinos and their world was like.
