Summary:
The story of Cathy Forster's experiences as a member of a team of paleontologists who went on an expedition to the island of Madagascar in 1998 to search for fossil birds.

Excerpt/First Sentence(s):
Carby Forster was three years old when she first discovered dinosaurs. It was Christmas Day. As she opened one of her presents, out fell six of the strangest toy animals she had ever seen. Cathy was hooked even before her dad explained what they were.

Publisher Description:
The extinction of dinosaurs some sixty-five million years ago is one of the greatest biological catastrophes in the history of our planet. Yet in recent years, paleontologists have turned up increasing evidence that ancestors of one group of dinosaurs still fly among us: birds. Join Cathy Forster, one of the few female paleontologists working today, on an expedition to Madagascar in search of clues to the mystery of bird evolution.
