someone cool your kids will never hear of in school!

I first heard of Vidocq in one of the "Books of Knowledge" in my grandpa's bookcase when i was about 8. He was a fascinating real life character and the basis of fascinating fictional characters as well. Your kids will like this book and they will learn something, too!
