Here we are at 4。6 billion years ago， and as we raise the curtain 。 。 。 the STORY OF LIFE is about to begin！ （Yes， that's right - we're telling the story of the ENTIRE history of Planet Earth）。

Take your seats for the ENTIRE history of Planet Earth， as we take a whistle-stop tour from the birth of Earth， to the age of bacteria， the era of dinosaurs 。 。 。 to the moment of people （blink and you'll miss it）。

Narrated by a friendly troop of insects and with mind-blowing， lively illustrations， this illustrated non-fiction book will entertain and educate， as we put on a show， the greatest show， the show of the evolution of life on Earth。
