Amazing Evolution: The Journey of Life

I think this book is suitable for ages 7 to 9 years old. It is fun and interesting! A great book with beautiful illustrations!

Book had great explanations of different aspects of evolution that my child learned from now at 5 and I think will understand more and refer back to in years to come! Pictures that kept her engaged and each 1-2pages were on a theme or topic that made it easy to read as its own part each night! We both loved it!

There's enough high to mid level information that an adult will learn something, an 8-10 year old will get a very good overall understanding, and a younger child will find topics of interest. 75 pages is longer than normal and there is just enough verbage and pictures to describe key topic issues. Not as slick as a DK book, but the same level of content. I've got multiple technical books on evolution, biology, geology, paleantology, trees of life. If a child, grand child, or unexposed adult asked me to describe evolution, this is the one book I would give them to start with to cover it all. Concepts of DNA, mutations, speciation, etc are in here. Details of Mitosis, ATGC, messenger RNA are not. Included are fossils, adaptations, Darwin, natural selection, genes, species, extinction, more selection, convergent evolution, eon/era/period charts, fossils and geology, earliest Cambrian life, branching trees, and a bunch of etcs.

I just got done taking a college biology course (as an adult) and this book really teaches the exact same things as my course but in a kid-friendly way. I was SUPER impressed when I read through it. It's got it all. I have other books that explain WHAT happened in the past, this book also explains HOW evolution happens--the mechanisms etc.

The way it is written makes it easy for kids and adults alike. The illustration is amazing and I find myself reading long after the twins fall asleep. 10 stars

i read this to/with my 5 year old and she completely loves the idea of evolution.. its a great book, great value and for someone whos familiar with evolution it even taught me a bunch of cool facts sparking even my interest in other evolutionary pathways.. it covers dang near everything and more than youd think. its quickly become even my favorite book to read pre-bedtime.

As a teacher and mom, this is one of the best children's books I've ever bought for my daughter and I to read together. This is actually a book is for all ages. A must have for your thinking child who loves to question, wonder, and ask why and how. Reading this book helped us both understand evolution even better than before. Wonderfully illustrated. Buy it!! Amazing job on a huge topic.

Reading this right now with my very curious 6 year old, and she loves it! Very informative with explanations that are easy for her to comprehend. Very high quality as well.
