Island by Jason Chin

Charles Darwin first visited the Galapagos Islands almost 200 years ago, only to discover a land filled with plants and animals that could not be found anywhere else on earth. How did they come to inhabit the island? How long will they remain? Thoroughly researched and filled with intricate and beautiful paintings, this extraordinary book by award-winning author and artist Jason Chin is an epic saga of the life of an island - born of fire, rising to greatness, its decline, and finally the emergence of life on new islands.
Jason Chin is the award-winning author of Redwoods, Coral Reefs, and Island: A Story of the Galápagos, which was named a 2012 Best Book of the Year by School Library Journal and Kirkus Reviews. His book, Gravity, received three starred reviews, while his most recent Water Is Water received two starred reviews. Jason lives with his wife, Deirdre Gill, and their two children in Burlington, Vermont. jasonchin.net
