Ben Garrod, a TV scientist, presents the most significant extinction events in history, focusing on the evolution of remarkable animals. From swimming creatures to stalkers, slithering ones to walkers, these animals have left an indelible mark on our planet. Whether you're nine or ninety, Garrod's captivating exploration of the destructive yet creative force in nature makes top-level science enjoyable for everyone.

Typically, a species has approximately 10 million years to evolve, engage in various activities like eating, chasing, playing, and even exploring the moon before it becomes extinct. The trilobite, a super-invader, stood out with its unique stomach located in its head. Despite facing two mass extinctions, over 20,000 species of trilobites survived for millions of years. Discover the secrets of these successful super-invaders and the Great Dying event that ultimately eliminated them 250 million years ago.

This captivating book is sure to captivate budding paleontologists, offering a wealth of facts and illustrations that bring the past to life. Well-written with clear explanations of complex concepts, it provides a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning more about the incredible animals that have shaped our world.

Toppsta has collected all eight books in this series, which explore the mass extinctions caused by asteroids, mega-volcanoes, continental collisions, and climate change. Palaeoartist Gabriel Ugueto has brought these extinct animals to vibrant life in full-color illustrations, making them even more captivating for readers of all ages.
