Who Was Ferdinand Magellan?

I really enjoyed this book. Bought several of these who was books for my daughter but I read them on my own too. This one is riveting! I recommend it.

Ferdinand Magellan..a man who made the first journey round the globe possible in a times when people didnt know earth was round !This wonderful story of dreams, adventure and passion is very well put in a simple but entertaining way. Kids would love to read it.Recommended age for self reading : 9+

livraison un peu longue, cependant l'ouvrage correspond aux attentes de mon petit-fils qui en est ravi

I love this series! They are great, easy-to-read, fact based biographies that my children have grown up with. Sacagawea was our first book because of my daughter's obsession and from there we moved to other strong historical women, such as Helen Keller and Amelia Earhart. Then we would find subjects to correspond with whatever my kids were studying at school. Really, really recommend this series!!!

This is a bit too basic for the mature reader. Although I am no scholar, some of the facts seemed to be off. It is a pitty that there are not more sources of information about one of the main players in the Age of Exploration.
