Did you ever read the book? The book with the cool illustrations?? Me and my bro loved it!! It was sooooo cool!!

Anyway, it seems they're making a TV serie of it and TDK is making a game of it for AGB (and others perhaps?)! It looks like just another platformer though...

Its not a TV show but a mini-series (or as ABC calls it, a MEGA-series).


And I read the two books but that was so long ago that I really can't remember much of what happened. I also read the series books....

There was Dinotopia and then a sequel.


They also made a series of smaller books that I don't think had any relation to the first two books besides they both happened in Dinotopia.

How long was the original book? Was it text-only or was it more like a children's book? Cause I've read a kiddy one...

Of course :D



And I don't remember how long tha first one was. It had pictures but it wasn't like a picture book, they're like maps and stuff. It was written like a journal that the guy in the books made when he went to Dinotopia. THe pictures in the books are pictures that he's supposed to have drawn from the things he saw.


At least I think anyway. Its been a long time since I've read it.
