Whether it鈥檚 The Elephant鈥檚 Child or the big bang, children are
fascinated by origins. David Walker鈥檚 A Leaf in Time is a crucial
creation tale showing how plants evolved from cyanobacteria to today鈥檚 green
stuff, struggling with climate change and deforestation. While probably intended

and the pictures are exciting. I learned that plants give us oxygen to breathe.鈥�
Clearly deserving of its place in the Making Sense of Science series. Published
