Product Description
Product Description
Nine remarkable men produced inventions that changed the world. The printing press, the telephone, powered flight, recording and others have made the modern world what it is. But who were the men who had these ideas and made reality of them? As David Angus shows, they were very different - quiet, boisterous, confident, withdrawn - but all had a moment of vision allied to single-minded determination to battle through numerous prototypes and produced something that really worked. It is a fascinating account for younger listeners.

Format:Audio CD
This audio CD book, alongside with other Naxos educational CDs for children, is absolutely fantastic. It contains loads of information, so adults interest is guaranteed as well as children's fascination. It's a must for curious little minds. Presented in an easy listening format, it educates and enterntains at the same time. Boring car journeys became a highly enjoyable and educational experiences in our family since Naxos CDs were purchased. Being non-fiction, they can be listened to over and over again, offering a chance for the child to remember and/or understand more details each time.

Format:Audio CD
my eight year old boy wants to become an inventor, so I bought this audio-book encouraged by the reviews I read. The CD is great,when I put it on, the whole family ended up listening to it, and since its a bit like stories told you can listen to it again and again.We orderd sraight away the CD about great scientists.

Format:Audio CD
I bought this cd, along with others in the series for my 9 year-old son. He really enjoyed them. When it's all too easy for children to sit mindlessly in front of a computer screen - these cds provide a much better alternative for a child's relaxation time. It's amazing how much my son remembers what he has listened to.
