This book tells the true story of a scientist named Mary Anning. The fossils she found helped invent the science of palaeontology. If you’ve heard of Ichthyosaurs, Plesiosaurs or Pterosaurs you already know her work but there’s so much that’s been hidden or forgotten.
Deshan Tennekoon is a physically rickety but mentally limber writer from Sri Lanka. His books for Think Equal are taught in schools around the world and lots of 6-year-olds think they’re okay. He wrote for The Bloomsbury Encyclopaedia of Asian Design and is still recovering from the shock of once being a Fulbright Visiting Scholar. ‘Podi’, a middle-grade graphic novel he co-wrote is forthcoming from Oni Press (2022). His short comics have been published by Image Comics, ShortBox, Inkbrick and in the Eisner and Ignatz-winning anthology Elements: Fire (Beyond Press). He believes in reckless napping as a fine tool for managing his sanity.
