Be a Hero Like
Leonardo Da Vinci
Leonardo Da Vinci was born in Italy. He was curious about everything. Because he couldn’t afford to go to school, he was mostly self-taught. He was creative and artistic. Working as an apprentice, he became interested in machinery, anatomy, and geometry. Da Vinci learned the value of questions, observation, practice and revision. He became an artist, a scientist, an architect, and inventor. He did what no one had done before by following his ideas and daring to dream. He stayed curious, asked questions, and pursued his daring ideas.
