The Adventure of Life by Jean-Benoit Durant with illustrations by Robin Gindre

 

As far as we can tell, the earth is the only planet in our solar system where life exists. It is home to around 1.7 million known species including all kinds of plants and animals. It is also home to over 6 billion people. What was here before people arrived on the scene?

From the same series as All About Food, The Adventure of Life is also an entertaining and informative read, although readers of both books will notice the difference in styles of writing and illustration. It shows the progression of life on earth and also of some of the theories we use to explain it. There are some good quizzes at the end of the book to judge how much the reader has remembered, and also good sections on human health and life.

It is a really interesting and useful book with fun illustrations and is very readable, making it a good school resource for 7 to 10 year old students.
