Summary:
The early nineteenth century. Mary Anning is only twelve years old when she discovers her first dinosaur skeleton while looking for fossils to sell. It isn’t just any skeleton; it’s the first almost complete Ichthyosaurus ever found. Over the next few years, more dinosaurs follow. Although Mary doesn’t get admitted to a university, her research would later form the basis for developing the theory of evolution, which made Mary one of the most important paleontologists in history.
