Learn the funny and fascinating story of Charles Darwin and the
groundbreaking discoveries his love of the humble worms led to in
this hilarious illustrated book. Charles Darwin is widely known for
his "Origin of Species" book, yet Darwin had another great love,
and that was for worms. Told for the first time for children, this
is the silly and fascinating true story of how Charles Darwin came
to discover that the humble earthworm is the most important species
on our planet. Darwin suspected worms were special but his
scientist friends laughed at him. In a quest to find out the worms'
special talent, Darwin played the bassoon to the worms to see if
they could hear, laid out a picnic treasure hunt for them to see
how well they could smell, among many other bizarre but entirely
true experiments. But so far Darwin didn't find anything extra
special about worms. Until, one day he realised that worms do have
a superpower. They POO! Without their life sustaining, nutrient
rich poo, there would be no plants and no animals on earth.
Darwin's 40 years studying worms is still essential to our
understanding of worms today, and ever since, scientists have taken
him VERY seriously, and never again laughed at his love of worms.
Told in a humorous and engaging way with non-fiction information on
each page to help educate alongside the story, curious minds will
love this fact-filled, laugh-out-loud title. The story of Darwin
and the worms not only centres around the perennially brilliant
subject of poo, it teaches children about a key historic figure,
the food cycle and deductive scientific thinking. It is also a
heartwarming story of the triumph of a zany underdog who won't let
bullies get in the way of his love for worms.
