Aristotle: Pioneering Philosopher and founder of the Lyceum


Socrates was the originator, Plato was his student, and then Aristotle was Plato’s student. These men loved knowledge and dedicated their lives to learn everything they could.

One of Socrates’ most famous quotes: The unexamined life isn’t worth living.
Two from Aristotle: “We are what we repeatedly do”; “Nature does nothing useless”

This book is part of an elementary school series but I think it’s great for any beginner. It is easy to read with great information and beautiful art.
