"""Mary Anning and Paleontology for Kids by Stephanie Bearce provides an in-depth and fascinating look at the life and amazing discoveries of Mary Anning, which not only helped create the new scientific field of paleontology but challenged long-held beliefs and theories about the natural world. Budding paleontologists will also enjoy the 21 hands-on experiments and thought-provoking activities included in this well-researched and engaging book."" --Linda Skeers, author of Dinosaur Lady"
