"The Story of Leonardo da Vinci is exactly the type of book I would
have gobbled up as a kid, grabbed to read with my own children, and
recommended to parents when I was teaching. Engaging, educational,
and above all, inspiring--author Ciara O'Neal's words will spark
curiosity and empower kids to believe in their own hopes and dreams
and plans of what might be." --Vivian Kirkfield, Author of From
Here to There: Inventions That Changed the Way the World Moves,
Sweet Dreams, Sarah: From Slavery to Inventor, and Making Their
Voices Heard: The Inspiring Friendship of Ella Fitzgerald and
Marilyn Monroe
"The Story of Leonardo da Vinci is full of interesting facts and
stories behind the creator of the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.
Readers will not only learn the historical background of this
master artist but also about his life as a curious kid growing up
during the Renaissance. Ciara O'Neal shares many of Leonardo's
lesser-known roles such as scientist, cartographer, and
mathematician. The author does a thorough job sharing the life of
this inspiring man." --Shannon Anderson, Teacher and Author of The
Story of Benjamin Franklin

engaging and intriguing biography. As the daughter of an art

outstanding resource for kids." --Susan B. Katz, NBCT, bestselling
author of more than a dozen books including The Story of: RBG,
