How paleontologists piece together prehistory

Paleontology introduces the different kinds of scientists who study the distant past through fossils, artifacts, and other evidence. Each specialty examines a particular part of prehistory; considered together, those investigations help build a broader picture of what Earth was like millions of years ago. The book frames the subject around both the evidence paleontologists examine and the ways their fields connect, with an invitation to consider paleontology as a possible career.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 9–12 interested in fossils and prehistoric life
  • Young readers curious about science careers and how scientific fields work together

Book overview

Paleontologists are scientists who study prehistory by looking at fossils, artifacts, and more. There are many kinds of paleontologists looking at different kinds of fossils. While each field within paleontology may look at only one part, they each work together in the end! By looking at each different part, we can put together a more complete picture of what our world looked like millions of years ago. Readers are encouraged to think about this fascinating field and decide if they would want to become a paleontologist.
