"Fossils are pieces of the past! They can show us a lot of information about the plants and animals that lived long ago on Earth. This detailed book has a wealth of information about what fossils can show us and how paleontologists learn from them. This can include facts about plants, dinosaurs, extinction, and even life with climate change in the future. Graphics provide more context, and full-color photographs show young scientists that they too can be fossil hunters!"--.
