Description

Mary Anning: A Life of Discovery Mary Anning was a remarkable woman who lived a life of adventure and discovery. As a child, she helped her father search for shells and bones on the cliffs, and it was on one of these expeditions that she received a book about fossils. This gift sparked her passion for the subject, and she went on to make some incredible discoveries, including the complete skeleton of an ichthyosaur. Despite facing challenges and being excluded from some opportunities, Mary persevered and continued to make her own discoveries. She even advised the Geological Society on matters of importance. Her groundbreaking work laid the foundation for the field of paleontology, and she is now remembered as its "mother". This book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of Mary's life.
