looking for a good book on ornithischia

Hello together,

I am looking for a good readable overview about ornithischia.

After enjoying "The rise and reign of the mammals" by Steve Brusatte,

I got myself his "rise and fall of the dinosaurs"  but found it quite theropod-heavy, not to say theropodocentric.

"Horns and beaks" from the "life of the past" series sounds promising, but the reviews say its just a collection of technical papers (as "ancient marine reptiles" turned out to  be, in contrast to "ancient sea reptiles", which I liked much even if it could have gone a bit more into the details)

Between the highly technical books and the many popular ones for children, I am looking for a solid, readable overview, preferably illustrated, about Ornithischia.

Same thing for Sauropods would also be welcome.

@LordTrilobite, maybe you have a recommendation?

Thanks!

J

I have quite a few books on Sauropods:

 

Encyclopedia of Dinosaurs : The Sauropods by Molina-Perez

The Sauropods : Evolution and Paleobiology by by Rogers

The Sauropod Dinosaurs by Hallet

Biology of the Sauropod Dinosaurs by Klein et al (quite technical)

The Hadrosaur book from Eberth and Evans has a lot of good stuff. But its very technical.

Thanks! I would dare it if it was a little less expensive. Will have to see if I can get it from the library.

Best Regards,
