The Adventure of Life, by Benoit Durand

Author: Jean - Benoit Durand
She is interested in what happens in life.

Illustrated by: Robin Gindre

The story is about the big bang and how earth was made.
The writing is normal but the layout is very attractive.
My favourite part is when It talks about the big bang.
My least favourite part is when they talk about how we started off as monkeys.
People over the age of 9 would like this book.
I give it four stars out of five.
