In this "delightful illustrated book written in rhyme" (as endorsed by Lawrence Krauss ), Annabelle asks "Why do we look, the way that we do? With hands and feet, in neat sets of two? What made my eyes? And what made my nose? And the shape of my body, from my head to my toes?" A wise owl answers by taking the characters on an incredible journey through Darwinian evolution. Join our characters as they visit outer space, watch the Earth go through its earliest stages, and gaze in wonder at the earliest forms of life. Young readers will gain a basic understanding of evolution, and perhaps more importantly, what we can learn from it: to be kind to one another, as we are all related in the same family tree.

Heck, it could probably even teach a thing or two to their folks." - Bill Nye Film "This delightful illustrated book can provoke wonder and questioning by young readers, who will find the story of life and humanity even more fascinating than fairy tales." - Lawrence Krauss , theoretical physicist, author of ' A Universe From Nothing' and ' The Greatest Story Ever Told...So Far' "Fun poem on the story of life!" -Dr. Liz Freedman Fowler, paleontologist, Executive Director of St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site "An important book every child should have. A charming lesson on the origins of life that extends beyond biology, teaching children an appreciation for the world we live in and the creatures we share it with. This book will make your amoeba flagellate." -Chris Cornelison, Ph.D., microbiologist, Georgia State University "This awesome book explains evolution to children in a fun and informative way." -Skeptically Challenged " This little book just nails it! Using a perfect balance of well-thought rhymes and elaborately educational illustrations to simplify complex biology into terms that even I can keep up with, I am convinced that future generations will find themselves wiser - thanks to one seemingly 'little' book." - Horus Gilgamesh, bestselling author of 'Awkward Moments Children's Bible' series. "The best children's books are the ones that an adult not only enjoys reading to a child, but also teaches them something new. That's the case with the evolution-themed Annabelle & Aiden: The Story of Life. As an avid collector of children's books, this is the most scientifically thorough and visually satisfying example I've ever seen in an under-represented category." - The Friendly Atheist Blog J.R. Becker wrote this book to foster scientific curiosity and wonder, critical thinking skills, and a love for our universe, our planet, and all people and Earthly life we share it with.
