The Story of Life: A First Book about Evolution

By Catherine Barr and Steve Williams

Illustrated by Amy Husband

At first, nothing lived on Earth. It was a hot, noisy place. Choking gas exploded from volcanoes and oceans of lava bubbled around the globe. Then, in the deep, dark ocean, something amazing happened... 

This astonishing story of the evolution of life on our planet spans nearly 4 billion years, and is brilliantly told and illustrated for younger children.
