This book is perfect for any young reader ages 4 to 8. Younger children will also enjoy looking at the vivid pictures and hearing you read to them.

You and your child will discover intriguing facts about these unique and seven wonders of the ancient world!


The seven wonders of the world, or the seven wonders of the ancient world, is a well-known list of the most admirable architectural and artistic works of the ancient world, which the greeks and romans considered perfect. These works, allegories of the human soul, show that with rudimentary means, the architects and builders of the time were capable of carrying out prodigious works.

The colossus of rhodes, the statue of zeus at olympia, the pharos of alexandria, the mausoleum at halicarnassus, the hanging gardens of babylon, the temple of artemis and the great pyramids at giza; of the seven wonders of the ancient world, only the last one is still in existence. Yet, through this illuminating publication, it is possible to step back in time and experience the extravagantglory of these incredible feats of human construction.


On top of it all, this is the only known major architectural hellenistic work devoted to a secular theme (the burial of two mortals) rather than religious art dedicated to the greek pantheon. The themes of the carvings even included many mythical enemies of the greeks, such as the amazons and centaurs, and the architecture was a marvel of engineering that was copied by neo-classical buildings.
