On one side the 4.5 billion year timeline presents a unique illustrated guide to the past, cleverly linking subjects together from asteroids to algae. Streams of colour represent key themes, including Earth, sky, sea and land, and provide a backdrop along which all the major events of natural history unfold. On the reverse side a 7,000 word, illustrated narrative explains the story of all natural history in words, highlighting the most significant moments and the people behind the science, which cross-refers to the timeline. Perfect for younger readers but also relevant to all ages, this innovative and versatile wallbook is the first ever attempt to illustrate the entire history of nature and natural science on a single piece of paper. It is the follow up to the critically acclaimed, best-selling What on Earth? Wallbook.
