Horn Book

A child looks out of the bedroom window and imagines the landscape and its inhabitants during various historical eras, eventually regressing four billion years to the beginning of life on earth. The writing is awkward, and the color artwork is undistinguished in its presentation of what the area looked like at different points in time.
