I loved dinosaurs as a child.  I read nothing but dinosaur books, until
grade 3.  At that point, I had a teacher who told me I was not allowed to
read any more dinosaur books that year.  This lead my around to other
hobbies for years.  I returned to my childhood passion when my brother had
me read the book "Jurassic Park".  I immediately went out to find the first
book on REAL dinosaurs I could find (which was suitably titled "Dinosaurs
Rediscovered" [by Don Lessem, no rude comments please]).  Later I saw the
movie "Jurassic Park", got "Dinosaur Heresies", saw the travelling Ex Terra
show here in Toronto, and went right back to where I was over twenty years
ago.
