      About This Book

      Discover the story of Mary Anning, the world's best-known fossil hunter.

      As a baby, Mary was struck by lightning, then as a little girl she found a fossilised sea monster, the most important prehistoric discovery of its time. This spectacular tale of a little girl who dared to be different and who followed her dreams will inspire young children.

      Beautiful illustrations and narrative text help children to learn how Mary discovered new fossils – and how her observations rocked the natural history world. Be inspired by Mary's work as a woman in the field of science – especially as her achievements weren't recognised until after her death. 

      Perfect for kids interested in dinosaurs and rocks, and for parents looking for strong female role models in science.
