A dinosaur epic narrated in the first person by birds. Spanning 230 million years, the story travels from the red wastelands of the Triassic, through the apocalyptic catastrophe of the Cretaceous, and into the rebirth of the Cenozoic. Through the genetic inheritance of the “Bird of Memory,” it witnesses how dinosaurs evolved from little creatures that crept through the shadows into survivors with bipedal speed, efficient breathing, insulating feathers, and night vision. They ultimately went extinct in an asteroid impact, yet continued to rule the skies in the form of birds.
This is no cold fossil record, but a family epic about survival, love, and inheritance. When millions of birds gather in the final chapter to form the enormous silhouette of a Tyrannosaurus rex, the words “We are dinosaurs. We will live forever” become the most moving declaration of life's endurance.
