Packed full of fascinating facts and funny illustrations, this is the perfect introduction to life on earth for even the youngest of readers. At first, nothing lived on Earth. It was a noisy, hot, scary place. Choking gas exploded from volcanoes and oceans of lava bubbled around the globe...Then in the deep, dark ocean, something amazing happened. Find out how the first living cell was created, and how the cells multiply and create jellyfish and worms, and then fish with bendy necks, which drag themselves out of the water into swampy forests. Discover the story of the biggest creatures that have ever walked on land - the dinosaurs.

Blumenthal Karen Steve Jobs. The Man Who Thought Different

Through his life he was loved, hated, admired and dismissed, yet he was a living legend; the genius who founded Apple in his parent's garage when he was just 21 years-old, revolutionising the music world. He single-handedly introduced the first computer that could sit on your desk and founded and nurtured a company called Pixar bringing to life Oscar wining animations Toy Story and Finding Nemo. So how did the man, who was neither engineer nor computer geek change the world we live in, making us want every product he touched? On graduation day in 2005, a fifty-year-old Steve Jobs said: 'Today I want to tell you three stories from my life, That's it. Just three stories'. The first story is about connecting the dots. My second story is about love and loss. My third story is about death. This is his story...

Baxter Stephen Evolution
The natural heir to Arthur C. Clarke dramatises the epic story of evolution. A novel that tells the story of life on Earth... They first fought for life when dinosaurs dominated the Earth. And, down through the countless millennia, they have survived. The primates. This is their story. They walked out of the forests, they became human, they covered the Earth, they fell. But they have survived and they have evolved. Evolution follows the ebb and flow of one stream in the great river of DNA. Darwinian evolution is dramatised as a constant life and death struggle, a heroic story of endurance. It is a story that transcends generations, species, mankind and, in the end, the Earth itself.

I'm Veronika Mahmurova, I'm a beginner writer, I live in Estonia, Tallinn. I decided to write my first book at the age of 21, as I always dreamed about it and wanted people all over the world to read my work.

My book is about young writer Jennifer whose dream is to find a mutual love, also about her new life, and about how life could change and how suddenly dreams could come true. I believe in destiny, so therefore my book shows how through time could connect two people even if circumstances did not allow them to be together. I hope you enjoy reading my novel.
