A visual, accessible, and unforgettable introduction to the genius of Leonardo da Vinci.
 
Part of the Great Lives in Graphics series, this creative retelling of Leonardo da Vinci’s life transforms the traditional biography into a vibrant infographic experience. Designed especially for young readers, this book captures the essence of one of history’s most brilliant minds in a highly engaging, visual format.
 
Children aged 8 and up will explore Leonardo’s fascinating world — from the secrets behind his legendary paintings like the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper, to his futuristic inventions including flying machines and tanks. Along the way, they’ll discover lesser-known facts about his life: he never attended formal school, he could write backwards, and he studied human anatomy by dissecting corpses!
 
Each page is packed with illustrated timelines, quirky facts, comparisons, and real-world connections that bring this Renaissance figure to life in a fresh, compelling way.
