Sapiens: A Graphic History: The Birth of Humankind, Volume 1 by Yuval Noah Harari

5.0

I treated myself to this hefty graphic novel at a local bookstore in Providence. I've wanted to read this book for a while, and I really enjoyed the exploration of our ancestors and all who roamed the earth for tens of thousands of years in this engaging format. I find the part about how humans from that era fundamentally changing the fauna in different continents particularly enlightening. I'll definitely share with my teens, and I don't think we do a great job in our school system educating children about our early ancestors and all of the species (neanderthals, etc) that pre-existed us.

When I'm back in Providence, I'll get part 2.
