Da Vinci
Leonardo da Vinci, born in 1452 near Vinci, Italy, was a remarkable figure known not only as a painter—especially famous for the Mona Lisa—but also as an architect, sculptor, and engineer. His creativity extended beyond art to inventions like flying machines, armored vehicles, and innovative designs centuries ahead of his time.
Several English-language books from the "Quelle Histoire" collection present his life step-by-step, starting from his apprenticeship under Verrocchio in Florence to his service at the French court under King Francis I, who greatly supported Leonardo's work and creativity. These books are designed for children around ages 6 to 10 and include fun learning elements such as puzzles, quizzes, and artistic exploration to make history engaging and understandable
