Description
Dig into this photo-packed book about fossils to discover what our world was like long ago. Fossils are remnants left behind by creatures that lived before us, and Curious About Fossils explains why they form and looks at the lives of some great early fossil hunters. You'll learn about Mary Anning, who uncovered the first ichthyosaur skeleton, and Richard Owen, who coined the word dinosaur. The book also takes you on a journey to modern times, where scientists use technology to uncover fossilized bones, teeth, and even poop that provide clues to the past. From shark teeth to trilobites, this book is perfect for anyone who's ever collected fossils or wants to learn more about these fascinating remains of ancient creatures.
