Relates the astonishing life of the English girl who at the age of eleven made a major fossil discovery dating back from the time of the dinosaurs-the first complete skeleton of the "fish lizard", Ichthysaurus-and grew up to become one of the world's foremost fossil hunters. The volume includes pictures of fossils found by Mary Anning, including ammonities and Ichthysaurus fossils, which are housed in the British Museum in London.
