 Alexander
the Great, the All-Powerful A young leader and legend of his time:
King of Macedonia, Pharaoh of Egypt, Emperor In 356 B.C., Alexander III
was born to King Philip II of Macedonia. Unbeknownst to Philip, his little boy
was destined to become one of the greatest leaders the world has ever known. This
prince became so mighty that today he is reverentially referred to as "Alexander
the Great."
Almost from birth, King Philip oversaw his son's tutelage
in all areas of survival, but particular emphasis was placed on the skills of
battle, as Philip himself was a great warrior. Alexander learned quickly and soon
began to surpass his father's training.
Alexander's constant companion
and friend, a servant by the name of Adonis, grew up to be Alexander's scribe.
Adonis tells his master's story and takes the reader on the conqueror's epic journey.
"Alexander the Great, the All-Powerful," is an exciting
read for young readers of historical fiction.
