A fully illustrated Chapter Book for children -- ages 7-12. This chapterbook begins with the Big Bang and ends with the rise of civilization. Children need to know this story. The story of how humans came to live on the Earth, as told by modern theories, is beautiful, profound, compelling, and comprehensive. The picture painted by science today is vast and mythic. I believe we owe it to ourselves as a culture to tell this story in simple terms to our children who will live with these ideas all of their lives. The chronology and events in this children's story are in keeping with recent findings of science. However, to tell the story in a clear and coherent manner, I simplified it greatly for young readers. In areas where science is uncertain such as the start of life and the development of human language, I took fictional liberties that are consistent with scientific speculation.
