One Big Family: Charles Darwin, Evolution, and the Mysteries of All Living Things

Have you ever wondered why we have five fingers? Or why millions of different animals are similar? This book tells the story of life itself — yours, mine, ours.
It is about the ideas that changed our understanding of the world, and about the man who boldly explored it and helped us better understand who we are and where we come from. Charles Darwin traveled, observed, asked questions. He showed us that the world is much more complex, beautiful, and amazing than we thought. And that all living things on Earth — are one big and wonderful family.
