Monster Stones

This series uses cartoon style illustrations and humorous narrative text to make key topics in science and geography both accessible and engaging, encouraging children to read about and understand complex ideas. This book takes the reader back millions of years to tell the story of a dinosaur’s death. Through this story, we discover how fossils are formed. We also learn how they are discovered, removed, researched and preserved in museums. This book also contains an experiment, more great facts to know, useful websites and an index.

This book communicates science well and, while it doesn’t bring the science into dialogue with religious faith, it builds a solid scientific understanding which can inform, and encourage, science-faith questions.
