Book Reviews of Macchu Picchu: The Story of the Amazing Inkas and Their City in the Clouds (Wonders of the World Book)
Book Review: Inka magic
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a delight. The vivid colors and imagination are what separate this book from your typical, dry non-fiction children's book. Obviously, the Inkas had access to all of the colors of nature(not just earthy colors as some might think) and no piece of faded cloth can tell the true story. Just like the Sistine Chapel, the Inka garments were once vibrating with color. The building of Machu Picchu speaks volumes - they had supreme skills in the area of art and design. Highly recommended to students and adults alike.
