The Second Mrs. Gioconda, by E. L. Konigsburg, 1998
Relates, from the point of view of his servant Salai, how Leonardo da Vinci came to paint the Mona Lisa.
* The greatest artist of his time
* An apprentice with a larcenous heart and an aversion to the truth
* A young duchess whose plain face belies her beautiful soulCould the complex ways these three lives intertwine hold the key to a historical riddle as enigmatic as the Mona Lisa’s smile – why Leonardo da Vinci devoted three years to a painting of second wife of an unimportant merchant when all the nobles of Europe were begging for a portrait by his hand?
Only a master storyteller like E. L. Konigsburg could create such an intriguing answer to the puzzle behind the most famous painting of all time.

Shadow Spinner
Every night, Shahrazad begins a story. And every morning, the Sultan lets her live another day — providing the story is interesting enough to capture his attention. After almost one thousand nights, Shahrazad is running out of tales. And that is how Marjan’s story begins….
It falls to Marjan to help Shahrazad find new stories — ones the Sultan has never heard before. To do that, the girl is forced to undertake a dangerous and forbidden mission: sneak from the harem and travel the city, pulling tales from strangers and bringing them back to Shahrazad. But as she searches the city, a wonderful thing happens. From a quiet spinner of tales, Marjan suddenly becomes the center of a more surprising story than she ever could have imagined.$4.00$7.99Shadow Spinner
