How Life on Earth Began
How life on Earth Began takes you on fascinating journey through millions of years of history to discover the ancient history of our planet. Beautifully illustrated by Ania Bestard, this book is a homage to scientific illustrations of the 19th Century. She uses the landscape format to create fascinating double page spreads with just the right amount of factual information that take you from the Hadean Eon 4550 million years ago to the Cenozoic Era (66 million years ago to the present day). Lift up the layers to turn back the pages of time and see lost landscapes come to life, filled with strange plants and extinct creatures. Discover how the Earth was formed, what happened to the dinosaurs, when humans first arrived, and how fossils can teach us about the distant past.
