Dinosaur Hunt
Written and Illustrated by Karen Carr
Karen's book, "Dinosaur Hunt," is a fascinating illustrated glimpse into the lives of ancient animals, and features one of the most famous predator-prey confrontations from the Cretaceous.
"Dinosaur Hunt" recounts the confrontation between Acrocanthosaurus and Pleurocoelus along a Cretaceous shoreline more than 65 million years ago. The fossilized footprints from this confrontation are preserved to this day, and can be seen at Dinosaur Valley State Park, in Glen Rose, Texas.
"The intriguing perspectives add drama and immediacy, and the author pushes the limits of the digital media providing impressive detail, for example, the play of light on the mottled textured skin of the giants. This will be a crowd pleaser." — Kirkus Reviews
Dinosaur Hunt includes more than 40 of Karen's illustrations.
For parents with young children and young readers.

How Do Frogs Swallow with Their Eyes?
Written by Melvin Berger and Gilda Berger and Illustrated by Karen Carr

Easily!
When swallowing a big mouthful of food, a frog blinks its eyes. The blinking pushes the frogs huge eyeballs down on top of its mouth. This helps squeeze the food in its mouth into its throat. Whoosh! Down goes its meal!
In this superb introduction to amphibians, children will uncover many facts about these cold-blooded creatures. The vivid illustrations from Karen Carr make these animals jump right off of the page.
For parents with young children and young readers.

Velociraptor: Small and Speedy
Written by Dawn Bentley
and Illustrated by Karen Carr
"Velociraptor: Small and Speedy" recounts the life and behavior of a group of velociraptors and shows them both as pack hunters and as scavengers.
Interestingly, Karen's instructions were to show velociraptor with feathers, in an ostrich-like color pattern! Feathered velociraptors may not be a scientific certainty, but showing them in this way shakes whatever preconceived notions young reader might bring to this book from motion pictures!
For parents with young children and preschool readers.
