Books with title The World in the Time of Leonardo Da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci’s descriptions and sketches of ingenious machines are brought into your hands in this fascinating book. Although these inventions were never built, they take form as 3-D models that you can assemble in The Inventions of Leonardo da Vinci. Based on the personal notebooks and sketches of the Renaissance's most influential mind, this collection of exquisite ideas will fascinate and inspire. Discover the concepts that da Vinci used to design his flying machine, hydraulic contraptions, war devices, coiled mechanisms, and the famous mechanical man. Each invention is brought to life as a 3-D model to build, with da Vinci’s own words and illustrations to provide further insight.

Leonardo da Vinci’s extraordinary curiosity made him one of the most prolific inventors in history: the submarine, armored tank, parachute, robot, and the self-banging drum are just a few of his creations. Now, children can not only discover what inspired Leonardo, but learn how to think like him, too. This exciting 40-page book brings the Renaissance world to life with stories, illustrations, diagrams, and hundreds of sketches by Leonardo himself. Young invenors also learn about the scientific method and how to learn from their mistakes — concepts that are put to the test when they construct their very own model of Leonardo’s amazing flying machine.
