Review by Horn Book Review

The history of the universe from the big bang to the creation of Earth is related, bizarrely, in the universeÆs first-person voice. Accompanied by often abstract and psychedelic color art that will have little appeal for young readers, the textÆs factual information is wrapped in New-Age-style prose that gives the entire book a whimsical quality. Scientific information and a timeline are appended. Bib., glos. From HORN BOOK Fall 2002, (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
