À propos de ce produit
Product Information
Combining world culture, history, geography, and architecture, this visually stunning look at ancient cities around the globe takes readers to such places as the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the cliff dwellings of Mesa Verde, and the mysterious sculptures of Angkor Wat. Perfect for fans of This Is How We Do It and Atlas Obscura . What would it be like if you lived a thousand years ago? To pass through the Hanging Gardens of Babylon on your way home? Or gaze at the stars from your cave dwelling in Mesa Verde? On mountaintops, deserts, and the banks of rivers, ancient cities that once thrived have become lost to time. But in their ruins, we can find clues of the past and the extraordinary lives their residents lived. All it takes is a simple question: What was life like before? Beautiful illustrations, masterfully crafted from layers of cut paper, ask readers to spend a day in the footsteps of someone from thousands of years ago.

Reviews
"With further mysteries and theories of these lost civilizations, this title will surely inspire young archaeologists to learn more about history and the ancient world. Laroche's art is the real star of this title....The visual precision and attention to detail will captivate readers." -- School Library Journal , STARRED review "[I]mpressive detail thanks to Laroche's signature paper-relief art....Stunning visuals." -- Kirkus "Laroche introduces 13 lost cities around the world.... Those who enjoyed reading about these places will be equally intrigued by the highly visual closing pages, where a timeline and a global map relate the sites to each other, both historically and geographically. A striking guide to lost cities." --Booklist, "In his first book as both author and illustrator, Laroche uses his trademark collage technique, combining drawing, painting, and cut-paper. This isn't a lift-the-flap, question-and-answer title to browse through quickly. The minute detail celebrates the awe-inspiring constructions with a focus reminiscent of David Macaulay's work. This will have many grade-schoolers poring over the pages for a long time."-- Booklist "Bas-relief cut-paper collages and brief text take readers on a tour of unique architectural structures around the world."-- Kirkus Reviews "The text is good, the organization is clever, but it's the art here that is truly masterful. The illustrations are made from layers and layers of cut and painted paper, and in fact may be considered sculpture-the visible dimensionality gives each page a deep tactile quality. Animals, people, domestic scenes, and landscapes both natural and manmade are depicted with skill and charm: the intricacy of this art will hold readers spellbound. The book is brought to a satisfying close with a loving re-creation of a North American small-town street and the interior of a lighted room in which two children create ziggurats and temples out of blocks and read What's Inside?"-- School Library Journal "Laroche deploys the guessing-game structure and fabulously detailed collages to intrigue an older set of readers . . . structurs hold visual surprises . . . This is an obvious draw for viewers who delight in . . . detail, and also an inspiration for kids with scissors, paper, and patience."-- The Bulletin, In his first book as both author and illustrator, Laroche uses his trademark collage technique, combining drawing, painting, and cut-paper.
