Once forced to the sidelines of science, Mary Anning is now recognized as the world’s first paleontologist.
Meet us at the Beneski Museum of Natural History at Amherst College for storytime and fossils! Author Heidi E.Y. Stemple will read from her new book, She Sells Seashells: Mary Anning, an Unlikely Paleontologist. Participants will learn about the science of the Ichthyosaur and have time to explore other marine materials in the museum.
