Description: "Even though they're dead, the scientists in this Horribly Famous title are still full of surprises. Not only did Darwin come up with the theory of evolution, but he also wrote a book about his pet worms! And Isaac Newton wasn't all that keen on science - sometimes it got on his nerves! Readers can find out everything they ever wanted to know, and more, about their favourite seriously super scientists."--Wheelers.co.nz.
