Impossible

Impossível

Catarina Sobral

Orfeu Negro | october 2018 | 40 pages | 21,5 x 28 cm | hardcover

It all began when everything was in the same place. We don’t know how it appeared, but we do know that the Universe started in a very small place. It seems impossible, but it’s true: when it all began, all the big things were very very little.

IMPOSSIBLE tells us the history of the Universe from the Big Bang to the birth of plants, animals and humans. Catarina Sobral’s first non-fiction book is a colourful journey through particles, stars, dinosaurs and our genealogical tree.

Catarina Sobral (Portugal) is an award-winning illustrator, published internationally and praised by readers and critics all over the world.
