She used to help her dad to comb for shells and bones up high on dangerous cliffs. After receiving a book as a gift from a kind benefactor, Mary learned all about fossils. She continued to hunt for them and made the startling discovery of a complete skeleton of an ichthyosaur. Sadly, she wasn't allowed to study along with all the other men, but she carried on making her own discoveries - including dinosaur poo! - and advising the Geological Society when they needed help. It took a lifetime to receive recognition but we all remember her now as the mother of paleontology. This roar-some book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the paleontologist's life. 600 10 $a Anning, Mary, $d 1799-1847 $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Women paleontologists $z Great Britain $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Paleontologists $z Great Britain $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a Little people, big dreams. 941 $a 6 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010025946.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20230825010134.0 952 $l ZKPC437 $d 20221018014840.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722064804.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20210702012410.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210325010038.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=59F40A628D2F11EB9F58E3DB45ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
