Book Overview
On This Spot... See buildings soar and traffic zoom, a kaleidoscope of color and movement. Now turn the page and time-travel back 175 years, where on the same spot carriages bumped and pigs raced across cobblestones. Turn again and go back 400 years to when a Lenape Indian trail crossed the spot. Now travel farther still, to when glaciers crept . . . dinosaurs preyed . . . a tropical sea teemed with ancient creatures . . . back 540 million years, when rock was all you could see. What happened on this spot?What will happen next?Look out your window. What happened on that spot?

Review ON THIS SPOT
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This is the answer to the question that's always intrigued kids: "who was here before me?" Starting with the present and going back to pre-history, the book answers that question with a clear and engaging text. It is also beautiful to look at and would please children of all ages.
