About This Book
Reach for this book when you notice your child asking 'how does that work?' or when they are endlessly fascinated by both drawing and building. It is a perfect choice for kids who don't want to choose between art and science, showing them that curiosity connects every subject. This simple biography introduces Leonardo da Vinci not just as a painter, but as a dreamer and engineer who used his imagination to envision the future. It is designed for early learners, using accessible language to highlight themes of lifelong curiosity and the pride that comes from creating something new. Parents will appreciate how it validates a child's multi-faceted interests and encourages them to look at the world with the eyes of an explorer.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. The book takes a secular, celebratory approach to his genius and avoids complex historical or personal controversies, focusing entirely on his creative output and scientific mind.
Ideal Reader
A 5 or 6-year-old who loves to take things apart to see how they work, or a child who spends hours filling sketchbooks with fantastical creatures and machines. It is for the 'polymath' child who is equally at home in a museum or a science lab.
