## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ give readers a view of da Vinci’s world
*by J***. on July 8, 2019*

Laurence Anholt has written a delightful historical fiction picture book. Leonardo and the Flying Boy is part of Anholt’s Artists series. Anholt takes known information about two of da Vinci’s students and incorporates them into a story about his flying machine. The book is illustrated with some of da Vinci’s work as well as colorful pictures by Laurence Anholt. The illustrations depict the time period and give readers a view of da Vinci’s world. I would not hesitate to add Leonardo and the Flying Boy to my K-12 Christian school library. It would be a great addition to our picture book section and could be used to highlight the lives of artists. I am considering adding the whole series. I purchased Leonardo and the Flying Boy to use in our Engineering and Inventing day which are part of our summer classes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This whole series is fantastic
*by A***R on February 28, 2010*

I can't say enough good about this series. It is a creative way to introduce kids to these artists. They are written to be kids stories and entertain while throwing in some information about who the artist is, to show the artists' general style and introduce some specific works by the artist. My daughter is 5. She soaks this stuff in. I think she would have been able to be as receptive to the stories at age 4 and maybe just earlier than that but it would have been pushing the envelope. I suspect she will enjoy the stories for another couple years.It has lead us to google some of the actual artists' works. My daughter now wants to find some museums that have some of the pieces that are addressed in the books.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Anholt is Amazing
*by T***M on January 31, 2010*

My son (three) already has a great love of reading and history in part due to Anholt's series. Like all Anholt's work, Leonardo and the Flying Boy is an historical, entertaining, and exciting read. Anholt always chooses a specific story about his subject and provides a fuller biographical overview outside of the story's text at the end. This is a wonderful tool that helps keep wandering attention spans focused. The specific story in this case is Zoraste de Peretolo's "flight" from Mount Ceccero in one of Leonardo Da Vinci's many flying devices. Anholt manages to incorporate loads of interesting facts about Da Vinci while keeping the story (and child's focus) flowing. At our house, we are big fans.
