On Earth, survival is the name of the game. MinuteEarth is here to help you discover the secrets--and science--of staying alive!

Dinosaurs may be pretty epic, but some creatures are even cooler. Want to know why? Because while 99 percent of known species in the history of this planet have gone extinct--even the mighty T. rex!--there's a powerful 1 percent that beat the odds to survive.

So, if you've found this book, you must be a species hoping to stick around on our beautiful yet brutal planet. Don't worry: Whether you have claws, stems, fins, or thumbs, this survival guide has examples of the strategies used by the successful 1 percent of species that know the secrets to survive and thrive.

From the trusted science education media company MinuteEarth, this nonfiction book holds the secrets to how various species--from bamboo to Homo sapiens--survive and thrive. Through full-color illustrations brimming with personality, splashy facts, and scientifically rigorous but accessible language, MinuteEarth invites young readers to dip their toes into some great big concepts while being entertained in the process. Includes a glossary, sources, and index.
