Kentaro Izumi + Minoru Inoue, Understanding the History of the Earth from Poop Fossils?

This is the third volume of the popular "Illustrated book of beautiful stones from riverside and seashore that children can search for" series. Next to the stones found along the water's edge and in the streets, we will now focus on the mysterious fossils of ancient creatures!

[Many people may imagine dinosaur bones when they hear the word "fossil. In fact, however, fossil remains of poop, footprints, burrows, and other traces of activity are much more numerous than fossil remains of the bodies of ancient creatures themselves.
You may be able to find fossilized trace strata on the riverbanks and beaches near where you live.

Fossils left behind by paleontological creatures that once existed on the earth can tell us many things about the prehistoric age.
This book introduces unique paleontological creatures and explains the dynamic movement of the earth, how fossils are formed, how paleontologists examine fossils, and how they study paleontology through cartoons and illustrations.

This book is also recommended for free research in science, covering topics ranging from earth science to paleontology and hands-on learning.

--------------------------------------------

*1 What is paleontology?
While playing at a beach in Chiba, Hikaru-chan*Gan-chan and her siblings encounter her brother cowering on a nearby rocky beach.
[What are you doing?]
[He is digging for fossils, poop fossils!]
The older brother was Dr. Kentaro Izumi, a paleontologist*. Hikari-chan and Gan-chan learn from him about various paleontological creatures that once existed on the earth.

*2 Body fossils and trace fossils
Dr. Izumi mainly studies biofossils. We often do not know what kind of paleontological organisms left their traces or who "owned" them, but there are various clues hidden in them that can reveal the mysteries of the prehistoric age.

*3 How fossils are formed
Why do even soft things like poop remain as fossils?
Knowing how fossils are formed, we can understand how lucky we are to be able to observe them today.

*4 Earth's activity and fossils
Why are fossils found on the ground when most fossils are found on the ocean floor? The reason lies in the dynamic activity of the earth. Great movements of the earth sometimes produce complex strata. Fossils can also provide clues to decipher the age and environment of such strata.

*5 Let's visit the laboratory!
Paleontologists do not only excavate fossils or study geological strata. There are many things to do in the laboratory.
Hikaru-chan and Gan-chan visit Professor Izumi's laboratory at the university and learn various ways to study paleontology and the prehistoric environment.
