For most of history, people believed that everything in the world was created at once. But scientists started to challenge that idea and in 1859 Charles Darwin, a naturalist and biologist, wrote On the Origin of Species that revolutionised the way that we have understood evolution ever since.
Scientist and illustrator Sabina Radeva has recreated Darwin’s most famous work with lovely pictures to help pupils learn about evolution. The book draws on Darwin’s observations from his travels around the world and his explanation of how species form, develop, and change over hundreds of thousands of years.
