Seven Wonders of the World by Mary Hoffman
Callimachus, Royal Librarian of Alexandria, is researching a new book and decides to take his young apprentice Philip on his Mediterranean journey. As Philip marvels at the most breathtaking and beautiful buildings, gardens and statues ever built - at Giza, Babylon, Olympia, Ephesus, Halicarnassus and Rhodes, he knows he will remember this trip for the rest of his life, But when they sail home to Alexandria, there is one more surprise still to come...Mary Hoffman's storytelling, based on the latest research, combines with M.P. Robertson's exciting reconstructions in an inspiring introduction to the world's Ancient Wonders.
