Unearth the mysteries of ancient fossils and discover the life and
legacy of Mary Anning in this beautifully illustrated, fact-filled
book for curious young readers. Have you ever found something
mysterious? Something you had no idea what it was but you had this
feeling it was important, that it held a secret? Mary Anning was a
fossil hunter, scouring the cliffs and seashores of Lyme Regis for
strange rocks and shells. Monstrous marine reptiles and dinosaurs
had once reigned the land and seas here millions of years ago,
disappearing only to leave mysterious traces for humans to puzzle
over. Mary's fossils paved the way for modern palaeontology and
helped to piece together a picture of how the dinosaurs lived and
evolved. Little did she know that 200 years later we would still be
talking about her amazing discoveries and how she influenced our
understanding of the history of the earth. Beautifully illustrated
by brand-new talent Kate Winter, with stunning panoramic fold-out
pages, this is a book to treasure and to read again and again,
perfect for all fans of natural history and curious young
explorers.
