Written for kids in 5th-7th grades, it not only talks about Archimedes’ mathematical discoveries and inventions, but transports us back to Siracusa, Sicily and describes to us how it must have been to live in that time and compare it to modern day Syracuse. It covers the political environment, touches upon the geography of the area and how ideas and thoughts were preserved and exchanged among the thinkers during that peaceful period about 2400 yrs ago. It is well researched, with citations throughout the book as well as images of maps, diagrams, paintings, sculptures and other artifacts about the time. Extended review:
