"I love Peter Sis, and the illustrations here are really wonderful. A bit over Rory's head, but she was very interested in trying to understand evolution. ;)"
"This is a great biography of Charles Darwin. The author employed many different elements to make this a fantastically rich read. There are charts, images, sections from Darwin's Diary, recollections of his childhood from his and his father's viewpoints, and drawings. A student could revisit this book over and over and find something new each time. This would be a great book to read with a young child to expose him to the ideas of evolution and to use didactic reading techniques."
"The Tree of Life is a beautifully illustrated and informative biography of Charles Darwin's life that is set up more like a picture book. Text is often written in circles and there are a lot of small pictures of the people and important aspects of his life that are briefly described above. This would be a good non-fiction book to promote to a teen or even tween who needed to learn about Darwin's life and have it not read like a text book. It goes in chronological order and many pages have a "public life," "private life," and "secret life" section to get to know more about Darwin as a person rather than just what his work was about. It is a quick read and would probably be more interesting to read than a thicker book on the same topic for a young person but would still give them valuable information.
