Overview

This expanded second edition of the best how-to book in paleontology for enthusiasts of all ages is filled with photos and first-hand experience about "everything dinosaurs"--from what to wear when you're looking for fossils, to what to do when you get them home, to how to formulate hypotheses and "think like a scientist." With case studies, detailed examples, and inspirational stories, both newbies and experienced collectors will find facts and helpful tips, links to volunteer digs, ideas for study, a comprehensive reading list--and a STEM-compliant Teachers' / Independent Study Guide. For younger readers, the authors also include real stories of real kids who have made significant discoveries in a science that has room for amateurs, students, and professionals. This book is a must-have for anyone--children and young adults who are just learning to love fossils, science students and teachers, grownups who take kids out fossil-hunting as a reason to go exploring themselves, or parents and grandparents who read dinosaur books with the next generation of scientists. Lace up your boots, and let's go!
