Mary Anning is an amazing figure in the history of paleontology. She was born into a poor English family. When she was one year and three months old, the girl survived a terrible lightning strike that killed the woman holding her in her arms and two other people. Mary miraculously survived. According to eyewitnesses, it was this event that transformed her: from a sickly child she turned into a dexterous and intelligent girl beyond her years. This story is about the life and beginning of Mary Anning’s journey. It's about how an ordinary girl, thanks to her perseverance and hard work, became the world-famous first female paleontologist.
