From Booklist
Gr. 4-8. What will wild animals be like 5 million to 200 million years from now? Lively and informative, this companion to Animal Planet's seven-part The Future Is Wild TV special draws on principles of evolution and scientific research to predict how animals will adapt and change. The vibrant, attractive page layout and succinct, clearly written text will draw readers. Early sections describing the earth, plants, and animals today and their development lead directly into discussion of the way scientists predict a future ice age for northern Europe, underground desert cities, and an amazing variety of new animals, ranging from birds with four wings to megasquids and bumblebeetles. Digitally created pictures of the futuristic animals lose some effect when they appear soon after color photos of current animals; but kids should find the prospect of this future ecology fascinating, and they will have fun identifying the 36 new species pictured and described in the final creature profiles section.

From School Library Journal
Grade 4-6-Imagining what the Earth will be like in post-human periods 5, 100, and 200 million years from now, Pye bases her vision on the evolutionary development of common creatures. An introductory section presents information on contemporary climates, habitats, and animals as well as evolution. From here, giant leaps are made to the animals and habitats of the future. These speculations are presented in a factual manner with realistic illustrations depicting habitats, food preferences, and hidden dangers. Sidebars showing "Evolution in Action" describe the human-age ancestors of these future beings. Full-color computer art mixed with good photographs and an interesting and varied layout complete this highly readable work that will be useful for reports and enjoyed as recreational reading. Dougal Dixon and John Adams's The Future Is Wild (Firefly, 2003) contains much of the same information and some identical illustrations, but is written on a higher reading level.

I'm sure the reviewer below looks

I bought this book after reading The Future is Wild.
This book is much the same, but adapted to younger tastes. It also expains that although they may look "silly" as the reviewer below remarked, but are proven body designs that would supposably accually work, or somethin or another. Please do not listen to the adjacent and dissilusioned reviewer. Althogh, you would probably appreciate the book better if you read the other first.

6 and 8 year olds love it. Adults too. We have the DVD so this is a nice companion book. Naturally, there are a lot of absolutely wild and impossible ideas in this book. But hey it is definitely thought provoking, and promotes out of the box thinking. Very entertaining and highly recommended for kids who love science and dinosaur.
The Wild World is certainly wild!

Readers that disapprove of this book may be missing the point of their own biological present. How could agile gibbons and even homo sapiens have evolved from rodent-like mammalian ancestors? How could manatees have evolved from elephants? Birds from reptiles? Our biological present is just as wild as this book!
This is the book my eldest son, now 7, has enjoyed the most. It is not only imaginative but also true to the evolutionary trends observed in our fossil history. This book is thought-provoking and therein readers may find its value. The mostly computer-based illustrations are detailed and realistic, which adds to the reading experience.
There is also a DVD series, btw!
