Super excited to be able to read this book to my boys to show them some amazing scientists. @ElizPagelHogan I'll let you know how they react to the chapter about me!! 😆

Maria Sibylla Merian is considered one of the earliest entomologists and ecologists and has a wide group of admirers, including Sir David Attenborough. Our latest video with @bbcideas tells her story, using animations based on her own illustrations:
