When planet Earth was new  Cover Image Book Book

When planet Earth was new / written by James Gladstone ; illustrated by Katherine Diemert.

Gladstone, James, 1969- (author.). Diemert, Katherine (illustrator.).

Summary:

"It has taken billions of years for Earth to become the planet it is today. When Planet Earth Was New looks back to the very beginning, using a poetic approach grounded in scientific fact to give an overview of how the planet has changed over time: from hot lava to the formation of oceans to the evolution of living things in water and on land. The book also includes the relatively recent evolution of humans--who are just a tiny speck in the sweep of Earth's history. A striking design with full-spread, digitally enhanced watercolor art gives the book a rich, atmospheric feel."
