Read and find out about fossils in this colorfully illustrated
nonfiction picture book.
What is a fossil? Sometimes it's the imprint of an ancient leaf in a
rock. Or it could be the skeleton of a dinosaur that has turned to
stone. With clear prose and beautifully detailed illustrations,
award-winning author and illustrator Aliki describes the different ways
fossils are formed and what they tell us about life on Earth long ago.
This is a clear and appealing science book for early elementary age
kids, both at home and in the classroom. It includes a find out more
section with a glossary and activity guide so kids can create their own
fossils for someone to find a million years from now.
Author/illustrator Aliki has penned four books listed as "exemplary"
