DescriptionQuote:What a Life! - Stories of Amazing People Publisher: Longman Milada Broukal 2001 ISBN: 0201619970 English 124 pages 28.6 MB These and other fascinating facts make up the biographies in 'What A Life!' Did you know that: • Jean Paul Getty put pay phones in his guests' bedrooms to save money on phone bills? • Leonardo da Vinci wrote backwards in his notebooks so that nobody could read them? • Pele´s first soccer ball was a grapefruit? • Pablo Picasso never threw anything away, not even empty cereal boxes? • Agatha Christie wrote a book that actually saved someone's life? This three-book series takes a fresh approach to making reading both pleasurable and motivating! High-interest biographies focus on less-known facts about famous figures, rather than the chronology of events typical of most biographies. Each book in the 'What A Life!' Series takes a multicultural approach, featuring 24 short biographies on inspirational figures from all over the world. Subjects range from historical and political figures to athletes, artists, entertainers, and humanitarians, including: • Marie Curie • I.M. Pei • Eva Perón • Agatha Christie • Muhammad Ali • Bruce Lee • Leonardo da Vinci • William Shakespeare • Cesar Chavez • Pablo Picasso • Maria Montessori • Mother Teresa In addition to the biographical reading, each short, easy-tofollow unit includes: • Pre-reading questions and activities. • Vocabulary exercises -- definition and usage. • Main-idea and reading-skills exercises. • Questions on detail and inference. • Discussion, comprehension, and writing activities. • Answers to exercises at the end of each book.
