Great Lives in Graphics: Nikola Tesla, Hardback Book

Great Lives in Graphics: Nikola Tesla Hardback

Part of the Great Lives in Graphics series

Hardback

Description

The Great Lives in Graphics series is a new way of looking at the lives of famous and influential people.

It takes the essential dates and achievements of each person's life, mixes them with lesser-known facts and trivia, and uses infographics to show them in a fresh visual way that is genuinely engaging for children and young adults.

The result is a colourful, fascinating and often surprising representation of that person's life, work and legacy.

Using timelines, maps, repeated motifs and many more beautiful and informative illustrations, readers learn not just about the main subject of the book but also about the cultural background of the time they lived in. You may already know that Nikola Tesla was an electrical engineer, but did you know that he was born during a lightning storm? Or that he had a phobia of pearls? This graphic retelling of Nikola's story gives children a colourful snapshot of his life and the world he grew up in, while educating them on everything from alternating current to the power of the imagination. AGES: 8 to 12
