Ivy and Bean Break the Fossil Record
by Annie Barrows
What characters these two girls are - Bean is an extrovert and naughty, Ivy is quietly subversive. When Bean decides she wants to break a record - any record will do - Ivy is right there with her. And when the record of sticking straws in your mouth doesn't work, and when Bean gets into trouble for trying to shatter glass by screaming, without warning her Dad, it's Ivy's talking about Mary Anning that points Bean in the right direction. Mary Anning was the first person to find a whole ichthyosaur fossil, and she was only 12. Bean very quickly convinces them both that of course there'll be dinosaur bones in her backyard and they're digging their way to becoming the youngest paleontologists ever.
My grandchildren loved this just as much as the first two in the series, and I am still loving reading them aloud.
