Before introducing how he created printing, the ways to make paper, leather, gold leaf, ink, printing types,and printing press are introduced first because those are essential elements that could make the printing skill succeed.

review 2: The cover of this book made me wonder which of my students would enjoy it so I took it home to read. This is the story of Johann Gutenberg and his invention of movable type. The book is illustrated much as his ... morebooks would have been. There is a series of riddles about each step he followed to publish his books. At the end there is some more history regarding him and his life. The author also includes historical notes and resources. less
