Report an issueMarch of the Dinosaurs is an interactive storybook that comes alive in your hands with highly realistic 3D dinosaurs that spin and zoom at the touch of your fingers.
Another offering from Touchpress (creators of The Elements and Solar System for iPad), March of the Dinosaurs takes the reader on a journey for survival, fraught with danger – blizzards, volcanic eruptions and deadly predators. Set in the Arctic 70 million years ago, Scar, a young Edmontosaurus, embarks on his first thousand-mile migration. It is a world of extremes: hot summers with 24-hour sunlight are replaced by freezing winters with continuous night.
Follow the story page by page, either reading at your own pace or with the text dynamically highlighted and spoken by Dr Who actor Kerry Shale. Use your iPad to meet the cast: 10 realistic 3D animated dinosaurs that can be rotated and zoomed, featuring scientific fact files about each of the creatures. High definition digital animation, specially produced by the team behind the National Geographic special "Escape of the Dinosaurs", brings alive dramatic key moments in the story.

8 of 10My mistake. I thought it was a more serious treatment of the dinosaurs covered. Deleted as it wasted too much storage space for what it provides.
Nice App... IF you IGNORE the fact these COLD BLOODED Dinosaurs would Freeze to Death in the ICE AGE!! Anyone living in the Northern or Eastern United States In Winter, would quickly figure this out!
Love this app. Another story and much more Dino's would be cool
I think this book is fabulous and the kids I teach are enthralled.
This app is very very cool. I like the story too. I recommend you get this app.
March Of The Dinosaurs is an incredible, jaw-dropping, gorgeous, well-thought-out, interactive dinosaur book that I can't stop listening to over & over again. The only complaint I have is that it uses up a lot of memory to install & to download updates, but otherwise its perfect. Keep up the impossibly-incredible work!!!!!
The story is a pretty typical "struggles of the wild" fare with dinos. Many layers of layers of information about the dinosaurs, and the 360-degree views are fun. Very few animated sequences and those that there are are short. This is a story book not a movie. Sweet spot probably mid-elementary age kids.
Never heard of it before!
