About this book

What really happened 66 million years ago - and how do scientists know?

On one ordinary day in the Cretaceous period, a giant rock from space changed Earth forever. This engaging nonfiction reader takes young learners step by step through one of the most dramatic events in our planet's history - from the moment of impact to the slow recovery of life that followed.

Inside this book, children will discover:

  • What the world looked like before the asteroid struck
  • How a space rock caused a mass extinction that wiped out entire species
  • Why the sky went dark and temperatures plunged across the planet
  • Whether volcanoes also played a role in the extinction event
  • Which animals managed to survive - and how they did it
  • How paleontologists and scientists uncovered evidence of what happened
  • How life slowly rebuilt itself after the impact
  • Whether a similar event could ever happen again
Who this book is for:
Written for curious readers in grades 1 through 4 (ages 6-10), this science reader is ideal for children who love prehistoric animals and want real answers to big questions. Each chapter builds on the last, making complex science clear and memorable without talking down to young learners. Parents will appreciate the accurate, up-to-date science presented in age-appropriate language.

Perfect for:

  • Independent reading at home or in the classroom
  • Homeschool Earth science and life science units
  • Supplementing school lessons on prehistoric life and natural history
  • Sparking conversations about science, survival, and our planet
