Leonardo da Vinci was a gifted painter, talented musician, and dedicated scientist and inventor, designing flying machines, submarines, and even helicopters. Yet he had a hard time finishing things, a problem anyone can relate to. Only thirteen paintings are known to be his - as for the illustrated encyclopedia he intended to create, all that he left were thousands of disorganised notebook pages. Here is an accessible portrait of a fascinating man who lived at a fascinating time - Italy during the Renaissance.
A series of illustrated biographies for young readers featuring significant historical figures, including artists, scientists, and world leaders.About the AuthorRoberta Edwards lives in New York, New York. Ken Call lives in Northbrook, Illinois.
