Illustrated in full color throughout with stunning compuer-generated artwork and with rare paleo photography, this story of scientific sleuthing invites us to wonder what our ancestors were like. From the discovery of Lucy's bones in Hadar, Ethiopia, to the process of recovering and interpreting them (a multidisciplinary approach with contributions from paleontologists, paleoanthropologists, archeologists, geologists and geochronologists), this book shows how a pile of 47 bones led scientists to discover a new -- and, at 3.2 million years old, a very very old -- species of hominid, ancestral to humans.

We loved that Francine is a character that is not brash, sass, or attitude. But we also liked her best friend who is those things. Both girls experience the pangs and pains of growing up their eight grade year in a parochial school in 1948. Recommended for sixth grade and up.

A beautifully designed book with a heartbreaking topic, the dust bowl of the 30s. We felt we gained understanding of the cruelty of the topic and especially how the disaster was related to man’s destruction of the plains. Use in a current issues discussion on global warming, deforestation or other loss of natural habitat. Good for older elementary and up.
