LIFE (AS WE KNOW IT) (CICADA) (HB)

Once upon a time, before time even existed, all matter in the universe was concentrated in a single point a fraction of the size of an atom. And then… it exploded. This is a celebration of the origins of our planet and the life that inhabits it. With lyrical text and sumptuous illustration, this book takes readers on an extraordinary evolutionary journey. We tell stories of apples and snakes, of gods and monsters. But the creation story told by science is more perplexing and incredible than any we could ever make up.
