Description:
From the inside cover: "This book is about fossils, which are the remains of animals and plants that have lived during the vast period of time that life has existed on the Earth.""Most fossils are the hard parts...shells or bone of animals, trunks or stems of plants...that have been buried sufficiently quickly in the muds and sands of ancient seas, rivers and deserts to save them from decay. They are important for showing how life has changed through time, and they also provide clues to the changing geographies and climates of the past."
"The scientific study of fossils is called palaeontology." The authors "hope that the story told in this book" will interest you enough to read further.
Lots of colorful illustrations.
Very Good- condition. Covers show some light rubbing/bumping and some edge and corner wear. Pages are clean. Binding is Very Good. A nice story and reference.
