What if the greatest adventure in science was hiding right under your feet?

From the cliffs of England to the Gobi Desert, real scientists have spent their lives digging up the ancient past - and now your child can meet them all. This book brings the thrilling world of paleontology to life through the true stories of the men, women, and even children who made history's most jaw-dropping fossil discoveries.

Inside, young readers will discover:

  • How the very first dinosaur fossils were found - and how scientists figured out what they were looking at
  • The remarkable life of Mary Anning, a working-class girl who discovered sea monsters before scientists would even let her in the room
  • The wild Bone Wars rivalry that led to a frenzy of competitive dinosaur digging across the American West
  • Explorer Roy Chapman Andrews and his death-defying fossil expeditions through the Gobi Desert
  • Barnum Brown, the showman-scientist who unearthed the most famous T. rex skeleton ever found
  • Modern paleontologists working in labs and in the field today, using cutting-edge technology to unlock prehistoric secrets
  • Fossil finds from every continent, including surprising discoveries from places most people never expect
  • Strange, lucky, and accidental finds - including fossils stumbled upon by farmers, hikers, and construction crews
  • Real kids who found genuine fossils and changed what scientists knew about prehistoric life
  • Practical, step-by-step guidance on how your child can start fossil hunting right now
