Human evolution

[CParker]

I'm looking for resources for my 5 year old who has recently taken an interest in pre-human hominids.  It seems like most of the information out there is geared towards (much) older kids.  We have the "Usborne Encyclopedia of World History", which is at a good level for her.  Does anyone have recommendations?

We have this book - Mammals Who Morph.  Haven't read it yet, but I am excited to do so. We have all three of the author's books and plan to do them sequentially.

This one from Amazon looks good.

Too little for her now but you can get the books by Leakey and son about the work done uncovering our earliest human ancestors.
