Sticks 'n Stones 'n Dinosaur Bones, the debut title in the new series of unhinged rhyming history and science books by popular illustrator Ted Enik, dinosaurs and Dr. Seuss come together in what has been called a "delirious and delightful American Tall Tale." This first book in Enik's new series is a ripping yarn - full of adventure and deceit - that brings to life the best-known public spat in all of paleontology: the bitter rivalry between Edward Drinker Cope and Othniel Charles Marsh that became known as "The Bone Wars." Lively and witty rhymes plus beautiful ("and beautifully demented," says Enik) illustrations by G. F. Newland reveal how the paleontologists' infamous rivalry began and how their mutual obsession with outdoing and ruining one another progressed. The following excerpt from Sticks 'n Stones 'n Dinosaur Bones reveals Enik's playful approach to the very serious business of revenge: Before very long, nearly quick as a cough, These Bone-Hunters' efforts began to pay off! "Well, son-of-a-gun!" boasted Marsh to his men, "This Dinosaur Egg would impress any hen!" "Well, don't that beat everything!" Dr. Cope crowed, "A big pair of Piggy-Toe Bones in the road!" As their digging went-on and they found more and more, They also found out they were both keeping score.
