Lost Cities
Autor Giles Larocheen Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 apr 2020 – vârsta până la 9 ani
What would it be like if you lived a thousand years ago? To pass through the Hanging Gardens of Babylon on your way home? Or gaze at the stars from your cave dwelling in Mesa Verde?
On mountaintops, deserts, and the banks of rivers, ancient cities that once thrived have become lost to time. But in their ruins, we can find clues of the past and the extraordinary lives their residents lived. All it takes is a simple question: What was life like before?
Beautiful illustrations, masterfully crafted from layers of cut paper, ask readers to spend a day in the footsteps of someone from thousands of years ago.

Recenzii
★ "With further mysteries and theories of these lost civilizations, this title will surely inspire young archaeologists to learn more about history and the ancient world. Laroche’s art is the real star of this title....The visual precision and attention to detail will captivate readers." —School Library Journal, STARRED review "[I]mpressive detail thanks to Laroche's signature paper-relief art....Stunning visuals." —Kirkus "Laroche introduces 13 lost cities around the world.... Those who enjoyed reading about these places will be equally intrigued by the highly visual closing pages, where a timeline and a global map relate the sites to each other, both historically and geographically. A striking guide to lost cities." —Booklist —
