Description
A new series of illustrated books specifically designed for children in elementary education, narrating the stories of those great historical figures who have left their mark on humanity in fields such as science, art, exploration, music, and other subjects.
Young readers will be able to read all about these famous people's main achievements, experiencing the main steps of their lives through Isabel Munoz's engaging illustrations, and finding out some curious facts about their work and success.
There is an index at the end of each volume listing the main biographical events, and some simple quizzes will help children to further understand and test their knowledge.
Isaac Newton is authored by Jane Kent, a writer and editor with over 15 years' experience. After studying publishing at Oxford Brookes University, she worked for some of the UK's top publishers before becoming a freelancer at JVK Creative. She works on children's and licensed book and magazine projects.
Isabel Munoz is a very happy and enthusiastic illustrator, raised in a small town in the north of Spain. Painting was her favourite hobby as a child, so when the time came, it only made sense to study Fine Arts at university. Today, after lots of hard work and many filled sketchbooks, Isabel is proud to say illustration has become her dream job.
