Humans

If you’re reading this book right now, then you are almost certainly a human. ‘Humans’ is the fifth book in the widely acclaimed ‘Big Science for Little Minds’ series, written and illustrated by John Devolle. Previously in the series readers have learnt about atoms, brains, germs and planets – now it’s time to learn about what makes the human race so different to other species. In this book you’ll discover all sorts of amazing and mind-boggling facts about humans. Like which animals we’re most closely related to, and how it is that, unlike our animal relatives, we can do things like play the guitar and write with a pen. You’ll even learn about the extraordinary organ that is the human brain – perhaps one of the most complex things in the whole universe!
