Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species: A Graphic Adaptation
from Rodale Books
Price: $9.25

Customer Review:

The idea of a graphic version of the "Origin of Species" is a good one, as many casual readers will never get through the original. Thus a graphic format might be more easily read and understood by them, if presented in the right way. Years ago I found the book "Darwin for Beginners" by Jonathan... more info

Charles and Emma: The Darwins' Leap of Faith

Customer Review:

Picked for a book club read, not realizing it was geared toward a younger audience. Several of us really enjoyed it, though we all found the writing style very simple (just right to include the younger audience.)

From So Simple a Beginning: Darwin's Four Great Books (Voyage of the Beagle, The Origin of Species, The Descent of Man, The Expression of Emotions in Man and Animals)
from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $29.43

Customer Review:

Darwin's theory of evolution has become widely celebrated and supported, since his first publication of The Origin of Species in 1859. Few other books or scientific ideas have had such an impact in recent times. Wilson has collected Darwin's four major books, which document Darwin's support for the... more info

One Beetle Too Many: The Extraordinary Adventures of Charles Darwin
from Candlewick
Price: $10.40

Customer Review:

There were a lot of interesting things in the house for Charles to
look at. It was not the kind of house where children were told things
like, "children must look, but not touch." Even his mother had
interesting things to look at, for she raised pigeons. One of his
favorite... more info

from Templar
Price: $9.19

Customer Review:

The HMS Beagle pulled up anchor and prepared to set sail for Brazil, but Charles Darwin's last minute invitation was almost refused because his father objected by saying, "If you can find any man of common sense who advises you to go, I will give my consent." A clergyman heading off to parts unknown... more info

I was interested to learn more about how Darwin developed his theory and on that score this is an excellent account. He is a fine writer and the chapters on the development of Alfred Wallace's work and on the writing of Origin of the Species are especially good--real page turners in fact.. The... more info
