INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Weaver, Anne H.

Children of Time: Evolution and the Human Story

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Matt Celeskey. Weaver imagines the lives (and often gristly deaths) of five youths from various prehistoric eras, grounding their lengthy, at times slow-moving, stories in evidence from actual fossil remains. Additional summaries at the end of each chapter recap and extend the excellent factual information. Crude color illustrations of modern and ancient people, landscapes, and tools are found throughout.
