The only reason I gave this book 5 stars was because I couldn't think of a single thing I didn't like about the book. Which is saying something, because Science is my least favorite subject. Plus the book inspired me to look up stuff I thought was interesting. ( )

Beautifully illustrated and nicely written. It's not "amazing" since it doesn't really use the comic book format to explain things much better than an illustrated text would; the framing device (aliens studying human life) is largely unhelpful. I felt like I learned a lot more from Hosler's 'Sandwalk Adventures'. ( )

I was skeptical of this book at first, but actually really enjoyed it. It proved very informative and covered a lot of information in an easily understood way; certain parts even made me laugh. "Evolution..." explains, in comic book form, how life evolved on earth from the very beginning of time to the present. This book covers a lot of information that typically could be very dry and drawn out in a fun way while still getting the information across. I love the idea of having comic books/graphic novels in the classroom as a way to potentially appeal to "nonreaders" or students that really have a passion for comic books. ( )

Underhållande och tydlig. Lyckas förmedla mycket av det vetenskapen vet om hur liv har uppkommit och jorden och utvecklats till oss på bara 150 sidor. Det känns som att det borde funka helt utan förkunskaper, men serien innehöll ändå en hel del som var nytt för mig trots naturvetenskaplig / teknisk bakgrund. ( )
