When Mary and her brother Joe discover the skull of a strange creature in a cave, Mary believes it can transform the fortunes of her family. But the rock face is crumbling, and the tide can race up the beach dangerously fast. Rumours swirl around town about Mary bringing bad luck. And then there is the matter of a stolen book...Can Mary unravel the tree's secrets and make the discovery of a lifetime before her past catches up with her? "Snakestone is an amazing achievement. As a Palaeobiologist, I know a good deal about Mary Anning and consider her to be one of the most important people in the history of my science. By following the science and history of Mary's life and giving her a voice of her own, Emma Bayley has brought a relatable and likeable Mary Anning to life in quite the most extraordinary way, allowing her to inspire another generation. I loved this book." - Dr Neil J. Gostling, Lecturer in Evolution and Palaeobiology at the University of Southampton, and Fellow of the Linnaean Society The perfect book to curl up with and begin the new year.
