Review Quotes:
"Ashley Hall's Fossils for Kids is a wonderful introduction for youngsters to the world of paleontology. It is far more than a list of interesting factoids about different species of dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals (although it has those in abundance). It explains the actual science of paleontology―what fossils are and how they form; how we find and uncover them; how we use this information to reconstruct the ancient worlds―in a family friendly volume. It is lavishly illustrated not only with reconstructions of ancient animals but also photographs of the real fossils themselves." ―Dr. Thomas Holtz, Principal Lecturer, Vertebrate Paleontology, University of Maryland

"If you're looking for a book that will grab a kid's attention, entertain, and educate, look no further! Gems for Kids is filled with applied information, wonderful pictures, and great ways to apply newfound knowledge on everyday household objects hiding geologic secrets." --Dr. Win McLaughlin, Visiting Assistant Professor of Geology, Pomona College
