The story of evolution!\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTo Charlie's classmates, it seems like the kiwi bird got a raw deal: It barely has wings at all, so it can't fly, and its long whiskers are more like a cat's. How can such an unlucky bird even survive in the wild? But Charlie thinks the kiwi is cool, and with the help of his great-great-great-great-great-grandpa Charles Darwin, he travels back in time to learn how the kiwi evolved from a dinosaur-like creature to its present-day wingless state. Learning that \"little changes in each generation can add up to BIG changes,\" Charlie begins to understand that the kiwi bird's flightless ways and catlike whiskers might be a bit odd, but they are exactly what has helped the species survive over thousands of years! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBased on an exhibit from the New York Hall of Science that is currently touring the country, this Darwinian adventure through time explains the hugely important principle of evolution in an accessible, kid-friendly style.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atheneum Books for Young Readers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/28\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781442421127\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.26h x 10.33w x 0.45d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/18\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2011 pg. 93\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHorn Book Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2011 pg. 68\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2011 pg. 60\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2011 pg. 429 - Superior,Well Above Average\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e145367 \/ Charlie and Kiwi: An Evolutionary Adventure\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.9 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Fablevision, New York Hall of Science the","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44112761258165,"sku":"9781442421127","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_19b85cc4-86cd-4cf8-bfeb-598417cf5c97.jpg?v=1715053589","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/charlie-and-kiwi-an-evolutionary-adventure-9781442421127","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
