| When did life on earth begin? When did the first living beings leave the water? How long did dinosaurs live on earth? And how did the story of evolution continue? How did animals and plants develop? At the end of her life the old dinosaur looks backword almost as far as the beginning, but also forward into the future long after the arrival of man. "I had a dream some time ago. In my dream I saw a new world..." A picture book about the evolution of life on earth, poetic and moving as a creation story ought to be. Proof that a story that is scientifically sound can be as touching as any fairy tale. Christine Sormann's illustrations combine exactness with loving humor. They are clear and beautiful. The book was shortlisted for the German Children's Book Award 1997. |
