"Set in one gloomy afternoon at the end of the Cretaceous, the hatchling Poharex is watched by the loving eyes of his mother. Meanwhile, his father, the king, watches in terror as the wheels of a great prophecy set in motion, and the greatest trial for his family and his kind looms ahead."

Another genre that is close to this is dinosaurs and volcanic eruptions.

there are more pages from the book at that link, it takes an attitude to the dinosaurs' extinction that I can only describe as 'gleeful'

Lilo and Stitch teaches children that “family means no one gets left behind”. This book teaches kids that this rule simply cannot apply in an apocalyptic situation which is an important exception for kindergarteners to become aware of.
― jmm, Friday, 19 May 2017 13:36 (six years ago) link
book at link looks great BUT usual pro-mammal erasure lies are promulgated:
a: big lizardy dinosaurs likely took several thousand years to die off b: many dinosaurs aka BIRDS survive to this day perhaps by eating RATS
