Anna N. Dhody is the curator of the Mütter Museum of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia, and the director of the Mütter Research Institute, the Gretchen Worden Chair. This is her first children’s book. Ted Enik was the illustrator for Eloise in Hollywood and for nearly a decade was an artist for the popular Fancy Nancy "I Can Read" series. He now wears two hats and is also writing (and rhyming) up a storm. R. A. Herrera began his career as an illustrator, then slipped behind the scenes and became a publishing administrator and artist agent. In 2011, he founded Pixel Mouse House, now copublishing a picture book line with Schiffer Books. This is his first-ever book cover credit.

This is truly history made fun. The whimsical rhyme turns man's folly to laughable learning. Greed and misguided ambition are sneaky culprits that can disrupt the best of times. Competition between Edward Drinker Cope of the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, and O. Charles Marsh of the Peabody Museum of Natural History at Yale stirred quite a Bone War! Each paleontologist used less than ethical means to outdo the other, yet brought to the public the wonder of dinosaurs. The illustrations by G.F. Newland complement the great text so wonderfully, that it is a most entertaining lesson in (pre)historical events! -- Midwest Book Review, Children's Bookwatch
