Description
From the Big Bang to the abundance of life that surrounds us today, this beautiful book - the third by the award-winning duo Gill Arbuthnott and Chris Nielsen - is the story of evolution, from the very first cells to ourselves.
How old exactly is the Earth? How do we know what was here before us? Are we still evolving? From Cells to Ourselves is the story of the beginnings of life around 3.8 billion years ago, to the millions of species alive today, including humans.
Learn about mythology giants who formed the Earth, analyse fossils, walk with the dinosaurs, join Charles Darwin on his exploration of the Galapagos islands, and marvel at some of the random and bizarre acts that have shaped our world in this beautifully illustrated book.
Created by the author and illustrator duo of the award-winning Balloon to the Moon.

About the Author
Gill Arbuthnott (Author)
Gill Arbuthnott lives in Edinburgh and has been a published author since 2003. She writes fiction and non-fiction and reckons that being a children's author is probably the best job in the world. Her recent books Dark Spell, Beneath and What Makes You You? have been shortlisted for major UK book awards. A former science teacher, she loves mixing scientific fact with wonderful anecdotes of people and places.
Chris Nielsen (Illustrator)
Christopher Nielsen is an award-winning Sydney-based illustrator. His work flows from a love of vintage design. His images have been adopted by wineries, zoos, department stores, radio stations and fishmongers around the globe. When he's not making images or raising children he can be found on stage with his band, The Ramalamas.
