| Rosalyn Schanzer invites kids to zero in on some of the greatest movers-and-shakers, adventurers, and scientists in history. This award-winning author, illustrator, and storyteller weaves her remarkable artwork into the mix to introduce the unknown inventions of Ben Franklin, Charles Darwin's most bizarre discoveries, the reason Pocahontas was bald, Lewis and Clark’s escapes from bears—and mosquitoes, and much more. Schanzer has traveled the world to dig up material for her scrupulously researched books, and you can join the fun via her vividly illustrated slideshows.
Her sense of humor and knack for inspiring students, teachers, and librarians alike have made her a popular presenter at hundreds of venues nationwide, including schools, teacher in-services, universities, national conferences, and book festivals. And her groundbreaking books fit perfectly into the K-8 school curriculum so that you can shine a light on history, biography, science, geography, and social studies all in one fell swoop. |
