In ECHOES FROM THE PAST, Stefaan Van Laere brings ten famous figures from world history back to life in gripping stories filled with suspense, adventure, and surprising moments.
What did the young pharaoh Tutankhamun see just before his world collapsed? Why did Alexander the Great keep pushing farther into unknown lands? How did Julius Caesar remain calm while others grew afraid? Why did Wu Zetian dare to challenge powerful men at such a young age? How did Queen Gudit rise from the mountains of Ethiopia to become a legendary ruler? Why did Joan of Arc refuse to flee the battlefield? What was Leonardo da Vinci trying to understand that others did not even notice? Why did Galileo Galilei keep looking at the stars, even when it became dangerous? How did Sacagawea guide explorers through an immense wilderness? And why did Rosa Parks change history simply by remaining seated?
From ancient Egypt to twentieth-century America, each story takes the reader to a different time and a different world.
With atmospheric illustrations and extra pages about daily life in those times, this book becomes an adventurous journey through history for both young and adult readers.
