Look, there’s a bit of a naming mix-up here—usually, 'Life: The Story of Life on Earth' is a book by Ruzicka, but the synopsis and the Mizielinski name tell us you're looking at the definitive 2020 Deluxe Edition of their world atlas.
This is the gold standard of 'floor books.' It’s the kind of media that justifies its physical existence in a digital world because no iPad screen can replicate the feeling of lying on the carpet and tracing the tree of life or the borders of Mongolia with your finger. It treats kids like they're smart enough to care about the history of the rumba in Cuba, not just 'here is a mountain.' If you're going to own one big book that isn't a dictionary, make it this one.
