Last week we spoke to Dr Nic Rawlence about his campaign for New Zealand to adopt a fossil emblem and celebrate its pre-historic past. Well, another way we can do that is by getting future generations excited about the subject.
Former primary school teacher Joan Joass has a geology degree and a passion for paleontology, so she wrote a book called 'We're Going on a Fossil Hunt', which attempts to do just that.
She also offers talks at schools to spark interest further, but unfortunately these have slowed in light of COVID. If you'd like to reach out to Joan, you can contact her here.
