Leonardo Da Vinci (Famous Children)

Rating:
Summary: Excellent description of the man written for children
Review: In my mind, there is no doubt that Leonardo da Vinci was the most talented person who ever lived. To the joy of us all, he was also one of the most prolific, drawing and painting everything in sight. Children need to learn about such people and how they enrich our lives from generation to generation. In this book, Hart and illustrator Susan Hellard capture the essence of da Vinci in a manner that is clear to children of elementary age. His passion for art and his diverse nature of exploration are clear and show how amazing he was. One can only wonder at how many patents he would have been awarded had there been such a thing when he lived. This is a book that should be read by all children.
