A good introduction to the eminent scholar of the Islamic Golden Age, known especially for the Canon of Medicine. Attracitve illustrations but I'm not a fan of the first person narrative for a biography. No source notes or bibliography. Translated from Arabic. From the same collaborators of The Amazing Travels of Ibn Battuta, also published by Groundwood. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Introduces young readers to Ibn Sina, telling his story as he might tell it himself. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of this philosopher, scientist and physician who was one of the greatest thinkers of his time. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Ibn Sina was an awesome dude. This book includes a lot about his accomplishments and abilities as a doctor and scientist. The first-person narrative is kind of weird though, to echo a couple other reviews. I would have enjoyed it better in the third-person. Also, according to the author's note, the earliest copy of The Canon of Medicine is at the Aga Khan Museum in Toronto, so I'm going to have to go visit it soon!
