Description
Explore the most amazing wonders of the ancient world! More than 2,000 years ago, travelers wrote about the incredible sights they saw while on their journeys. They told tales of hanging gardens that were built for a Babylonian queen, and a colossal statue that guided ships through the harbor of Rhodes in Greece. These writers compiled a list of the very best of these sights that are now known as the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Author Yona Zeldis McDonough takes the readers on a trip to the Lighthouse of Alexandria and the Great Pyramids in Egypt (the only Wonder still standing), the Statue of Zeus at Olympia and the Colossus of Rhodes in ancient Greece, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, and the Temple of Artemis, detailing the creativity and skill that these early civilizations possessed.

Interesting and accurate read for kids of wonders of ancient world
Written in a style kids can digest, with good pictures and a map insert of the relevant areas of the works. Historically accurate. 10 year old loves it!

This is not 7 wonders of the world!!??
Picture on the cover is misleading. Title says 7 wonders of the ancient world but then there's a picture of statue of liberty. Come on! Disappointed.

For My Grandchildren
Does anyone think about the past anymore? Seems we are all barreling towards the future! I wanted my little school aged grandchildren to read about the great human accomplishments of antiquity, so I bought this book and I know they will love to read it.
