Along Came Galileo

Jeanne Bendick

Beautiful Feet "commissioned Jeanne (author of over 50 books) to write a children's book about Galileo, the result is an insightful and delightful look into the life of a courageous man of faith and science. It was Galileo's questioning mind and insatiable curiosity which drove him to monumental breakthroughs in astronomy, physics, and mechanics. His many discoveries and inventions challenged and eventually changed 'the acceptable way of thinking' in these fields of thought. Learn all about this remarkable figure in this title packed with many of the author's original illustrations."
