The Great Lives in Graphics series is a new way of looking at the
lives of famous and influential people. It takes the essential
dates and achievements of each person's life, mixes them with
lesser-known facts and trivia, and uses infographics to show them
in a fresh visual way that is genuinely engaging for children and
young adults. The result is a colourful, fascinating and often
surprising representation of that person's life, work and legacy.
Using timelines, maps, repeated motifs and many more beautiful and
informative illustrations, readers learn not just about the main
subject of the book but also about the cultural background of the
time they lived in. You may already know that Leonardo da Vinci
painted the Mona Lisa, but did you know that he was dyslexic? Or
that Bill Gates paid $30 million for one of his old notebooks? This
graphic retelling of Leonardo's story gives children a colourful
snapshot of his life and the world he grew up in, while educating
them on everything from the Renaissance to the magic of creativity.
