Why are there so many different kinds, or species, of living things
on earth, each uniquely fitted to its environment? For Charles
Darwin, this question represented the ""mystery of mysteries.""
Darwin first began to formulate an answer during a youthful voyage
around the world on the H.M.S. Beagle from 1831 to 1835. Darwin's
answer, known as the Theory of Natural Selection, changed the way
we think about life on earth. In a clever twist, this beautifully
illustrated and engaging account reveals that Darwin had help from
an unlikely source: a beetle named Rosie, who possessed a very
un-beetle-like urge to see the world. Rosie the Beetle accompanied
Darwin on the now-famous voyage of the Beagle. Her lively, witty
narrative describes how she took Darwin under her wing, providing
clues and hints that guided his insights. The young reader is
challenged to use the clues to solve the mystery before Darwin
does.
