What's an author's purpose?

"Kostia and Edik's find was big. More than once-in-a-lifetime big. More than once-in-a-millennium big. They had discovered a frozen baby wooly mammoth. People had discovered the bones of mammoths before. They had even found large parts of frozen mammoth bodies. Never had anyone found a mammoth - or any other extinct, prehistoric animal - that was completely whole and so well preserved." - Mammoths and Mastadons: Titans of the Ice Age by Cheryl Bardoe
