Description
The Galápagos, an island of unique plants and animals, has been a source of fascination for over 200 years. Charles Darwin's first visit to the islands in the 19th century revealed a land teeming with life forms found nowhere else on Earth. What led to their evolution and how will they endure? This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of an island's life cycle, from its formation to the emergence of new life on other islands. Thoroughly researched and featuring intricate paintings, it is an engaging introduction to scientific principles for young students.
