From a very young age, Sue Hendrickson was meant to find things: lost coins, perfume bottles, even hidden treasure.

Named in Sue’s honor, Sue the T. rex would be placed on permanent exhibition at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago. When Sue Found Sue inspires readers to take a closer look at the world around them and to never lose their brave, adventurous spirits.
