The Young Oxford Book of the Prehistoric World

by Jill Bailey, Tony Seddon, Tony Bailey, Jill; Seddon

Book Overview

The Earth is home, according to one estimate, to some 3,000 million million million million living things. But that's just a fraction of those that have existed throughout history. Vast mountain ranges have risen and been worn away. Continents have broken up and drifted across the globe only to collide again to form new land masses. This book is the story of the Earth from its fiery beginning to the arrival of man.

Great for Montessori Kids!

This book is used continually in my classroom. My students use it to write reports about the time periods of history. It really helps them develop research skills and interest in the topic of Pre-History.
