"Laugh out loud funny - and you'll learn lots too!" - Adam Kay, author of "Kay's Anatomy" and "Kay's Incredible Inventions."

If I had had such a book when I was 10 or 11, I might well have set my sights on becoming a geneticist or some kind of biologist.

"Go on an extraordinary adventure through millions of years of human history and learn the story of our species from evolution to dinosaurs to YOU!" - Stephen Fry

Along the way, you will meet kings and queens, Pharaohs and Vikings, and see just how far and wide humans have migrated around the world. You'll discover why we're related to a super cheesy man and that no matter what skin colour you have, language you speak, or place you are from, we all share the same small pool of ancestors.

Mind-boggling, entertaining, and illuminating, this is the epic story of you and everyone who has ever lived!

"A BRILLIANT book about biology and belonging. Packed to its covers with fascinating facts, science, and joy; I have a ten-year-old son who will LOVE this book." - Dr Alice Roberts, author of "Wolf Road" and "The Incredible Human Journey"

Funny, silly, and utterly rigorous - a book that will inspire awe and wonder in all that read it. It stands a better chance of making the world a better place than any book I've read recently.
