Inhaltsangabe

A New York Times Bestseller • From world-renowned historian and philosopher Yuval Noah Harari, the bestselling author of Sapiens, comes an exciting, brand-new illustrated book for middle-grade readers that looks at the epic true story of humankind.

"Gripping and thought-provoking." —New York Times

Even though we'll never outrun a hungry lion or outswim an angry shark, humans are pretty impressive — and the most dominant species on the planet. So, how did we become "unstoppable"?

The answer to that is one of the strangest tales you’ll ever hear. And it’s a true story.

From learning to make fire and using the stars as guides to cooking meals in microwaves and landing on the moon, prepare to uncover the secrets and superpowers of how we evolved from our first appearances millions of years ago.

Acclaimed author Yuval Noah Harari has expertly crafted an extraordinary story of how humans learned to not only survive but also thrive on Earth, complete with maps, a timeline, and full-color illustrations that bring his dynamic, unputdownable writing to life.

Includes: a timeline, maps, further reading, and other resources for young readers to reference.
