What was the First book or Movie You ever recall about Dinosaurs?
Mine.
Was a 1998-ish Jurassic Park Institute Book.
About The Tyranasaurus Rex.
I actually Probably still have it somewhere.
It was a nice little book. I read it a few months ago. It's designed for Six year olds, but Is still chocked full of Information and such.
My one memory of that book, Will always be the end-- In which, The ghost of a T-rex Roams across the Plains of Alberta and Walks slowly towards the City of Calgary.
The book mentioned Rex scavenged, but also said it hunt.
*I think this was it...*
If I'm correct, JPI actually hasn't released a book in... Forever...
Anyways-- What was you first memory of Dinosaurs. A book. A show. A game.
Earliest one you can think of.

Life cannot be contained, it breaks walls, crashes through barriers sometimes painfully, but uh... Life uh, finds a way
So pretty much when i got into dinosaurs?
Land Before Time, the first one...quite the childhood memory...
Then it lead up to Discovery Channel's Walking with Dinosaurs episodes (Later to be replaced by Boys vs. Girls, oh gosh the horror...) That was part of it...
Jurassic Park 3 sparked my interest although I saw Jurassic Park Lost world first, so jp3 played a big role for my interest in dinosaurs...(Jurassic Park Og is my favorite btw)
And lastly, the biggest reason as a chld to this day I still love dinosaurs is because of the PaleoArt in Encyclopedia. Favorite artists: Steve White and Julius Csotonyi...Dinosaurs to me were real life dragons! ;)
