The Story of Life on Earth

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Nicki Palin. Working in broad strokes, Harris tells the tale of evolution--how life crept from the primordial sea and developed into the various classes of animals; how dinosaurs first ruled and then disappeared from Earth; and how humans arrived and soon dominated the natural world. Detailed illustrations bring a distant past to life, but a tacked-on conservational moral dampens the otherwise thought-provoking history.
