Most people think of Leonardo Da Vinci as some old guy painting stuff hundreds of years ago...yet even Da Vinci was once a bold, troublemaking kid who craved adventure--this is his story! Young Leo has spent his childhood exploring art and engineering (and creepy caves) in the freedom of his hometown. But when his long-lost dad drags Leo to an apprenticeship far away, our boy genius soon finds himself out of his depth...and in a city on the brink of war! Fortunately, Leo also finds two new friends who change his life forever: Tano, a charmingly clumsy chum from Africa, and Filomena, a pre-teen patron who funds Leo's latest inventions and always wears a mysterious smile--the smile which will inspire Da Vinci's most famous portrait. Together, Leo, Filomena, and Tano uncover a deadly conspiracy that threatens the entire world...only nobody believes them, since they're "just kids." So Leo and his pals must grab everyone's attention the only way they know how--with elaborate pranks that harness the true power of Art to open eyes and change minds. Equal parts Sherlock Holmes and Indiana Jones, Leo Da Vinci leaps out of history and into our hearts in an epic tale full of action, comedy, and full-color fun! -

Invention of Yesterday: A 50,000-Year History of Human Culture, Conflict, and Connection
In this extraordinary book, an award-winning author tells the story of how humans invented history, from the Stone Age to the Virtual Age "Terrific... Tamim Ansary explores the underappreciated ways that empires, nations, and smaller sets of people have responded to their surroundings, influenced one another, and developed stories that give their lives meaning." ―San Francisco Chronicle Traveling across millennia and cultures, The Invention of Yesterday argues that world history is a narrative we're constantly inventing. Fifty thousand years ago, we roamed the world as countless autonomous bands of hunter-gatherers, each one telling itself a story of the world with itself at the center. We used narratives to organize for survival and explain the unfathomable, and these stories evolved into the bases for cultures, empires, and civilizations. When disparate narratives collided, the encounters produced everything from confusion, chaos, and war to cultural efflorescence, religious awakenings, and intellectual breakthroughs. In this updated edition with a new postscript, Tamim Ansary uses insightful, vivid stories to illuminate how our propensity to invent a shared symbolic universe has shaped our journey from the Stone Age to the Virtual Age. -
