YOUNG LEONARDO HC
(W) William Augel (A) William Augel
A spirited glimpse at the childhood of one of the world's greatest artists and thinkers: Leonardo da Vinci. Have you ever wondered what the great masters were like when they were young? Meet Leonardo, a curious little boy who closely examines the inner and outer workings of the world around him, gaining inspiration for beautiful paintings and wild machines of all kinds (even some that fly!). Little does he know he'll one day paint some of the world's greatest masterpieces like the "Mona Lisa" and "The Last Supper," and even spur the great period of cultural rebirth known as the Renaissance! Young Leonardo is a charming tale, riddled with humor and poetry. This book resonates with art lovers of all ages!
