"Explore the incredible ways evolution works, from the beginnings of life 3.5 billion years ago to the walking, talking super-apes better known as human beings. Amazing Evolution is filled with fascinating facts!" - The Week Junior
Evolution can be a difficult idea to wrap our brains around: it deals with random, unlikely events, combined with vast lengths of time too enormous to comprehend. But the evidence is all around us – in the fossils of long-dead creatures, and in our genes and the relationships between all living beings.
Amazing Evolution shines a light on this incredible process, from the beginnings of life around 3.8 billion years ago, to the millions of different species alive today, including the moon-walking, talking apes with super-powerful brains – human beings!
Filled with clear explanations, beautiful illustrations and fascinating facts about the planet’s strangest and most spectacular creatures, Amazing Evolution will keep children (and adults, too!) enthralled for hours.
Delve into the pages and learn what makes a fish a fish, why giraffes have such long necks and how all living things, from cabbages to tigers, are related! Amazing Evolution is the perfect first book about evolution for young readers.“I love books like this that are able to make what can be quite complex scientific ideas and theories accessible (and fun!) to young children.” * Toppsta *
"Essential for schools learning about evolution, extinction, fossils, Darwin, Anning & Wallace!" * The Reader Teacher *
"A thoughtfully presented and engagingly written piece of non-fiction on such a huge topic." * Picture Books Blogger *
