Captain Cook

by Haydn Middleton

This is a wonderful new series of well-told, beautifully illustrated biographies with dramatic, evocative illustrations on every page. Each book tells the story of a remarkable person from the past, whose name and achievements have lived on far beyond their own time. Lively, narrative text by skilled storytellers, this colourful, picture book style artwork will stimulate the imagination and linger in the memory. It includes international range of characters. Each has a timeline and index for easy reference. The biographies link in with National Curriculum KS1 and KS2. Young children love a good story. What better way to introduce them to the giants of our past than through these delightful books? The titles in the series have been chosen to cover a wide range of characters and to have both national and international appeal.
