How the Borks Became: An Adventure in Evolution
Jonathan Emmett, Elys Dolan
Borks live on a planet quite like our own Earth. They have shaggy yellow fur and long thin necks. But once they had short blue fur and almost no necks at all.
How could this happen? Well, it didn’t come about all at once …
Jonathan Emmett tells a delightful story in verse about the Borks and all the things that happened to make them gradually look quite different, while still remaining Borks. And by the end of the story, the reader will have a very good notion of how Evolution by natural selection works.

I liked the end part where it explained how I became me and the next bit that I liked was the borks with the long necks so they could reach high and eat lots of fruit.

I enjoyed this book as it was funny but educational. I was both fictional and factual as evolution is real but Borks are not. The characters were interesting and it was good to learn how things change over time to help them survive.
