Product Description:
Over two-thousand years ago, a very smart baby was born. This intelligent infant quickly grew into a curious youth, and eventually to a studious scholar with an ever-insatiable sense of wonder about the world. Although he excelled in all subject areas, his favorite topic of study was geography. This story of Eratosthenes is written directly to children and engages them in the lively, interesting text and illustrations even while presenting the great accomplishments of this ancient Greek's lifetime. 48 pgs, hc. - Melissa
