Written by Ian Lendler, Illustrated by Shelli Paroline and Braden Lamb
This book is about how the universe started with one tiny little dot that was so excited to exist that it exploded and that’s how the Earth began. The story line travels throughout the course of time, starting with day 1. It explains how animals came into existence and then human life. I felt like the story was slow and the illustrations are just fair. Im not sure how much younger children will enjoy this book. If the illustrations were more vibrant I think that it would have been more captivating.
