What Came First?<br />

Sandro Natalini<br />

“What came first? The chicken? The egg? Lots of stories begin with<br />

‘once upon a time’ and so does this one; close to fourteen billion years ago,<br />

according to scientists. . .”<br />

Put your head together<br />

with Charles Darwin<br />

and puzzle over what<br />

makes life change<br />

and evolve<br />

When was the Earth created and how? And the most pressing<br />

question of all – how did humans come to be? What Came First? is<br />

a funny but scientifically sound introduction to evolution. Learn<br />

about the Big Bang, where it all started, and read vivid descriptions<br />

of a melting pot full of microscopic organisms – the very<br />

beginnings of life – to the first oceanic life forms and, with the<br />

formation of the continents, the first land mammals, all the way<br />

through to the evolution of the plant, animal, and human life<br />

that surrounds us today.<br />

Natalini expertly guides young readers to examine the science<br />

behind the creation of life, all the while nudging them forward to<br />

find the answers that lie behind existence. Complemented by an<br />

assortment of rich and colorful illustrations as well as detailed<br />

timelines and charts, What Came First? is a welcome resource for<br />

the child who is seeking his or her own explanations the origins<br />

or our world.<br />
