Collection: Children

Little Women meets My Little Pony in this new graphic novel interpretation of the literary classic about love, life, and sisterhood. Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, and Rarity appear as the March sisters, who harbor dreams of life beyond Broncord, Massahoofetts.

Rainbow Dash yearns for excitement--something to write about. So when Applejack, the Marches' neighbor, arrives home with tales of eel wrangling and apple eating, Rainbow Dash and her sisters dare to hope for more. Soon, Twilight finds herself in conflict with high-society mage Trixie, Fluttershy contracts a nasty case of Pony Pox, and Rarity and Rainbow Dash are fighting about, well, everything. Through difficult times and surprising challenges, the fillies work together to be better sisters and friends. Little Fillies captures a message that is as central to My Little Pony as it is to Louisa May Alcott's timeless novel: Nothing is more important than family.

"This in-depth, beautifully illustrated biography of Mary Anning sings with the passion and perseverance of the woman herself, who from girlhood on scoured the shifting cliffs of her native Dorset to dig out prehistoric mysteries and make sense of them--altering forever our view of the past." --Joyce Sidman, Newbery Honor winner and Sibert Medal winner

A fascinating, highly visual biography of Mary Anning, the Victorian fossil hunter who changed scientific thinking about prehistoric life and would become one of the most celebrated paleontologists of all time. Perfect for children learning about woman scientists like Ada Lovelace, Jane Goodall, and Katherine Johnson.

Mary Anning grew up on the south coast of England in a region rich in fossils. As teenagers, she and her brother Joseph discovered England's first complete ichthyosaur. Poor and uneducated, Anning would become one of the most celebrated paleontologists ever, though in her time she supported herself selling by fossils and received little formal recognition. Her findings helped shape scientific thinking about extinction and prehistoric life long before Darwin published his famous work on evolution.

With engaging text, photographs, and stunning paleoart, Fossil Hunter introduces this self-taught scientist, now recognized as one of the greatest fossilists the world has ever known.
