Mary Morland in the Time of Dinosaur Discovery, written by Jane Kurtz, illustrated by Giselle Potter, is a fun picture book biography of a woman who threw aside convention and was a crucial part of establishing the science of paleontology.

Today as part of #Sonderbooks25, I finished relistening to Enchantment, by Orson Scott Card. I loved it just as much as the first time, when it was a 2007 Sonderbooks Stand-out. What really happened with Sleeping Beauty? So beautifully told!

Happy Reading!
