The History of We tells the history of our past, back to the earliest evidence of modern man in Africa over 200,000 years ago. There is evidence of their tools, their jewelry, their inventions, and shelters.
A fascinating and beautiful picture book. I love how it connects to things that we value today, art, dance, language, music, and style, and how we know they developed medicines and specialized tools. In the author's notes, illustrations are referenced with the artifacts or time period they represent, along with the scientific discoveries supporting them. A great introduction to the History of Man with gorgeous illustrations. The characters are African.
