Sue Hendrickson Discovers Her T. Rex

Sue Hendrickson was born to find things. Even as a young girl, she was always looking closer, finding lost coins in the sand or hidden treasures in the woods. Her curiosity never faded, eventually leading her to a career under the ocean as a diver and across the dusty plains as a paleontologist. But her biggest discovery was still waiting for her. In 1990, while on a dig in the hills of South Dakota, Sue spotted something extraordinary: the fossilized bones of a Tyrannosaurus rex. It turned out to be the largest and most complete T. rex skeleton ever found! You will follow the incredible true story of how Sue found 'Sue,' the dinosaur that now wows millions at the Field Museum in Chicago. This inspiring biography shows how a lifetime of curiosity and a brave, adventurous spirit can lead to a discovery that changes history. It is a powerful reminder that if you keep your eyes open, you might just find something truly monumental.
