Finding Life

A Prehistoric Search and Find

  • Interest Level: Grade 2 - Grade 5
  • Reading Level: Grade 3

This entertaining book combines an informative, educational journey through the history of life on this planet with a vibrant, detail-packed search and find.

Simple texts break down the various epochs—from the Precambrian Era through to the Holocene. On each spread, a selection of relevant creatures can be found hiding in the landscapes. Can you spot Pulmonoscorpius, the two-foot-long scorpion, hiding in the Carboniferous landscape? Or the tiny dinosaur, Eoraptor, concealed in the Triassic?

Kids will return time and again to pick through all the incredible detail on each page. This gorgeously packaged, boredom-busting romp through evolution will provide hours of entertainment for budding paleontologists.
