I Like Science: Discovering Dinosaurs with a Fossil Hunter offers beginning readers ages six to eight an easy-to-read format accompanied by photographs of an actual fossil hunter (paleontologist). The scientist, who loved dinosaurs as a child, is shown with his fossil-hunting tools (including cameras, microscopes, metersticks, and data log books) to emphasize the processes and skills that scientists use in their work.
