It's Alive! - 3 views

  •  
    From the author: "Book two in a three part series, It's Alive explains the scientific theories regarding the origin of life on Earth using captivating illustrations and whimsical rhymes. From the formation of our solar system to the birth of bacteria, you'll learn about the conditions that could have created life, the nature of organic existence, and the beauty of evolution. This book is intended for all ages. If you don't understand everything, don't worry, no one does! That's why I made it rhyme and added lots of pictures."
