Description
As a young boy, Charles Darwin hated school and was often scolded forconducting “useless” experiments. Yet his passion for the natural world was so strong that he suffered through terrible seasickness during his five-year voyage aboard The Beagle. Darwin collected new creatures from the coasts of Africa, South America, and the Galapagos Islands, and expanded his groundbreaking ideas that would change people's understanding of the natural world. About 100 illustrations and a clear, exciting text will make Darwin and his theory of evolution an exciting discovery for every young reader.

Horn Book Review
This readable, informative biography of the great scientist is marred only by the caricatured cover illustration (typical of the series) and interior pencil illustrations that are inconsistent in style. Otherwise, this will give young readers a good introduction to Darwin's life, career, and ideas. Timeline. Bib. (c) Copyright 2010.
