Charles Darwin
2
In 1859 Charles Darwin wrote a famous book all about the things he had found on his travels. After 20 years of studying, he had an idea that the plants and creatures he had collected hadn’t always been the same as they were when we found them. He thought that, millions of years ago, living things had all started of in the same way and had gradually, very, very slowly, changed. In this way lots of different animals and plants had developed. This idea is called ‘evolution’.
