13th August International Left-handed Day

Left-handers Day is held on this day worldwide. It is a day to think of everyone you know who is left-handed. Time to think of all the famous lefthanders. I was surprised to read how many of the champions I have been finding biographies for are left-handed.

Here is just some:

• Artists: Michaelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, henri de Toulouse Lautrec,

Paul Klee and Escher

• Musicians: Mozart, Bach and Schumann

• Author: Lewis Carroll

• Scientist: Albert Einstein

• Saint: Joan of Arc

• Politician: Winston Churchill

• Astronaut: Buzz Aldrin

All of these have books that can be used for inspiration! This book The Cat and the Bird, a story inspired by the life of Klee is new this year.
