Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Author: Lisa Manzione
The Bella and Harry series of children's books is Lisa Manzione's first foray into children's fiction writing. As a member of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI), Lisa's entrance into the field of literature is one she has eagerly awaited and is very passionate about. As the daughter of a single parent who worked for a major airline, Lisa's exposure to (and interest in) travel began at an early age. Later in life, as Lisa's own children grew up and her love of animals continued, the idea for the Bella and Harry series was born.

Illustrator: Kristine Lucco
Born in rural Pennsylvania, Kristine's passion for art began at a young age. This interest in art continued and ultimately led Kristine to study at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale.
Now a mother of two avid junior readers, Kristine’s unique talent and particular flair for children’s themes has evolved quite naturally into the world of children’s books and illustrations. She is quick to credit her own children for inspiring this phase of her art, as it is often conceived by seeing the characters and places through their eyes.
In addition to her work on the Bella and Harry series, Kristine has also illustrated the most recently recognized children’s book, “Wacky Jacky, The True Story of an Unlikely Beauty Queen”.

"Our fist stop is the Flavian Amphitheater, more commonly known as the Roman Colosseum. Today, the Colosseum is one of the most visited sites in Rome. The Coloseum is in ruins now, mosly becausee of earthquakes and stone robbers. Most people believe the Colosseum is one of the best buildings ever built by the Romans. The building is about 2,000 years old. It's an 'amphitheater', which means the building is usually oval or round, and there is no roof covering the center area of the theater."

"Harry, Circus Maximus is not a circus with animals or games. Circus Maximus was a place for chaiot races long ago. It was the first and largest stadium in Rome. It measures about 2,050 feet long ... or about 342 average lions ... standing tail to tail."

"We are going to have lunch at Piazza Navona today. The piazza, or open square, has a big fountain, whcih has one obelisk (a four sided, tall stone) in the middle of the fountain."
