Product Description:
A rhyming story opens this book about a visit to Galapagos Islands and the encounters with the unique creatures that live there. It then moves into a factual section that dives deeper into the island’s history and animal life. While the book doesn’t directly support the theory of evolution, a brief biography on Charles Darwin discusses his journey to Galapagos Islands and how it “led to new scientific theories to consider”. 29 pgs, pb. - Emily G
