Description
Over 2,000 years ago, ancient Greek scholars
named seven of the most wondrous
monuments to civilization, including the
Pyramids of Egypt and Statue of Zeus at Olympia.
Through the centuries these treasures were known as
the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Because
all but the Egyptian pyramids have been lost to the
ravages of time, a new list of seven wonders was
established in 2007. These monuments, including
Machu Picchu in Peru and the Great Wall of China,
symbolize the creativity and ingenuity of human
civilization.
Seven Wonders of the World introduces kids ages 9–12
to the seven wonders on the original list and the
seven wonders on the new list. Learning about these
icons of world culture offers opportunities to discover
amazing civilizations, technological innovations, and
our shared world heritage. Sidebars, fun trivia, and
entertaining illustrations break up the text, making
it easily accessible and engaging, while hands-on
projects encourage active learning.
