Our planet Earth is home to many amazing, wonderful and beautiful plants, places and animals. How all that began, about 4 billion years ago, is also quite impressive, especially since our Earth was a lifeless hot rock exposed to radiation, electrical discharges, heat from erupting volcanoes and more!

However, it turns out that those not-so-comfortable conditions were the exact mix needed to create the first building blocks of life. Some chemical elements, including hydrogen, oxygen and carbon, joined in variations to form certain molecules. Then, these small molecules also joined in different ways and formed carbon-based compounds. And it's these compounds that became the founders and essential parts of all forms of life.

Read this book to find out just how life came to be on Planet Earth.
