Dig into the fascinating world of dinosaurs alongside the young female palaeontologist Zofia Jaworowska as she unearths ancient secrets buried beneath the desert sand. Finding some of the most remarkable dinosaur fossils of the mid-20th century, this little-known scientist unearthed wonders like the awe-inspiring Deinocheirus, with its massive claws, and the iconic Velociraptor locked in a fierce battle with Protoceratops. But Zofias journey was far from easy. Growing up in occupied Poland during World War II, she studied in secret, hidden away from the Nazis. As a young palaeontologist in the uncertainty of post-war Europe, Zofia struggled against the icy grip of the Cold War until her first visit to the Gobi Desert in Mongolia where her discoveries opened up a new world of opportunity. With courage, curiosity and a passion for knowledge, Zofias story shows us that even the tiniest footsteps can leave the biggest mark on history.
