JOMP BPC - 18th July - Well-loved
This is one of the few books I have from my childhood. I think my mum and dad must have bought it long before I was born - I think it dates from the 1940s. Its a gorgeously illustrated guide to evolution and it includes this amazing fold-out chart illustrating the geological periods. I spent so many hours poring over it as a child.
