Présentation de l'éditeur

In Evolution, our little friend Ackerley the Acanthostega takes you on a journey through time to explore the development of life on our wonderful planet, from the earliest organisms of 3.6 billion years ago, through to the arrival of primates 60 million years ago, to modern humans who have been around for less than 200,000 years. With brilliant CGI illustrations, fun diagrams and loads of humour, these four books answer, simply and honestly, the important and fascinating questions about life on Earth and how it evolved. Book 4 - 66 Million years ago to present day THE RISE OF THE MAMMALS After the great extinction of the dinosaurs 66 million years ago, see how mammals begin to dominate on Earth. Many of these spectacular animals are now extinct, from the mighty creodont and smilodon to the giant indricotherium, which was twice the size of an elephant. And, of course this period saw the evolution of the most powerful mammal of all: Homo sapiens man!
