About This Book
In the 1600s, sailors had to guess just how far they had traveled, or they had to rely on the stars to navigate. John Harrison, however, changed navigation forever. Interested in science from an early age, Harrison went on to invent a clock that not only kept time, but helped sailors know just how far they had traveled.About the Authors or Illustrators
Louise Borden began work on her first children's book, Caps, Hats, Socks, and Mittens: A Book About the Four Seasons, when her youngest child began elementary school. Her love of history has come into play in many of the books that have followed, as has her experience with children's thoughts, feelings, and concerns.
