About the author

Sam Taplin grew up in a beautiful valley in Yorkshire, where he dreamed of being a writer, and after three years reading other people's books at university he started writing his own. He's been doing it ever since. When he's not writing about lonely rabbits or inquisitive bears, he likes doing card tricks, writing songs and playing long games of chess by the fire.

Reviews

[Noor Anand · Rating 4 out of 5]

No new information here but I liked the sequencing of events!

[Starshine Everlight · Rating 4 out of 5]

Colorful, chocked full of facts. Great illustrations, some almost look like photographs. Didn't really use the internet links. Mostly just bought for the pictures.

[Regina Hunter · Rating 4 out of 5]

Book for middle schoolers or younger. Has good diagrams, but some of the info is outdated. Limited vocabulary, where as by adding glossary there would be more information to share, and would be more educational. Descriptions on "fishes" "dinosaurs" and other creatures are very short. For example: picture where wolves attack prehistoric camel, they mention that camel is bigger , where as ratio wolf camel is very weird (height wise) and now I wonder if they talk about dire wolf or any other one. So spaces and blanks here and there make this book very questionable.

My son liked the page on how the earth formed the best, while I liked the part about the jungle.
