Any recommendations for a good book about evolution for very young children? Pearl wanted to know who the mother of the very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very first person was, which lead into a discussion. I used John Long and Brian Choo’s picture book to illustrate the idea but would love more recommendations.
I was quite pleased with my child’s logic. After I explained the concept she asked what made creatures change – straight into natural selection. I was feeling chuffed with my answers too, until Ruby commented that Bert the monkey in her Noddy books is ‘half evolved’ because he wears pants over his fur and tail.
