An entertaining guide that gently introduces children to the history of a discovery that amazed the world. The activities, accompanied by information about Lucy, evoke the atmosphere of the original expedition. For a while, children will become assistants to the famous paleoanthropologist Donald Johanson and his student Tom Gray, experiencing with them the hot November day of 1974 in Hadar.
Thanks to this guide, they will gain an understanding of what this fascinating discovery means—not only for science, but also for themselves.
