This is the international (ex North America) English edition of “Emma Ren Junior Paleontologist” by Jenny Lu that has just been released by Marshall Cavendish.

Emma thinks dinosaurs are scary, so when her class goes on a trip to the Natural History Museum to study dinosaurs and fossils, she isn’t at all keen… She’s partnered with Jake to find a fossil in a big chunk of dirt. Luckily, Jake loves dinosaurs and is happy to take the lead, but will Emma be able to overcome her fear so she can be a paleontologist for the day?

The story features Mary Anning a pioneered paleontologist and fossils collector, a female role model in the male-dominated field of paleontology and STEM. Bursting with fun facts and age-appropriate information, it is an engaging story perfect for young kids.
