Description
A fascinating, child-friendly look at how our family history shapes us, and at the links between us and our ancestors. Includes activities for readers to investigate their own unique genetics!
This book crams in a huge amount of information, yet the presentation is uncluttered and really encourages children to read ... it's a big and complex topic, but it is really well explained so children gain a full understanding ... I highly recommend this book for its understandable approach to highly complex subject
A complex subject, but one which is clearly explained, with brief summaries of each topic clearly set out on vividly coloured pages. From genetics and evolution to our environment and families, the book looks at all the factors that shape us into the people we are ... a very well-written and accessible book.
