This children's book introduces readers to archaeology and to Rex, a dog that nearly gave up on being adopted when a lady with a muddy truck and crazy wild hair comes looking for him. Not only does Rex get a new mom, but a new job, too. He has become Rex: Official Barkeologist! Follow along as Rex encounters his first adventure in archaeology - and puts his skills and nose to use! This book is dedicated to the staff and volunteers at the Archaeological Research Institute and to animal rescue volunteers everywhere.
