Biography paleontologist book

Wow, this book was truly awful! My biggest complaints:
1. Readers only know she worked in Tanzania by reading the names on the maps pictured.

They don't even list the location in the back matter!

A picture book biography that looks at the life of anthropologist Mary Leakey.

Book overview.

A haunted paleontologist returns to the museum where his sister was abducted years earlier and is faced with a terrifying and murderous spirit in this chilling.

The Burgess Shale and the Nature of History is a 1989 book on the evolution of Cambrian fauna by Harvard paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould.

All we get in the text is pithy junk like, "She lived in Africa, the land of sun, grass, and fossils, until she passed away." I hope my obituary contains more than, "She lived in North America, land of sun, grass, and fossils, until she passed away." How incredibly disrespectful to Leaky, and to the tens of thousands of people that live and work in Tanzania!
2.

The illustrations were terrible. They really looked computer generated, and not in a good way.
3. Her maiden name is never mentioned in the text, nor is her location of birth, or her parents' names. We need to look at the timeline at the back to get, "1913: Mary Nicol is born in London on February 6." My kids & I spent the whole book thinking this woman was American.
