'A simply wonderful, irresistible book' DAILY TELEGRAPH 'A terrifically entertaining and imaginative story wrapped round its tough, thought-provoking philosophical heart' DAILY MAIL 'Remarkable ... an extraordinary achievement' SUNDAY TIMES When 14-year-old Sophie encounters a mysterious mentor who introduces her to philosophy, mysteries deepen in her own life. Why does she keep getting postcards addressed to another girl? Who is the other girl? And who, for that matter, is Sophie herself? To solve the riddle, she uses her new knowledge of philosophy, but the truth is far stranger than she could have imagined. A phenomenal worldwide bestseller, SOPHIE'S WORLD sets out to draw teenagers into the world of Socrates, Descartes, Spinoza, Hegel and all the great philosophers. A brilliantly original and fascinating story with many twists and turns, it raises profound questions about the meaning of life and the origin of the universe.

While I love the story and the clever way in which the philosophers were introduced, the size of the print was very off-putting. I bought and previewed this book for my grandson, a budding philosopher, but don't think he'll stick with it because it's such a challenge to even the healthiest of eyes like mine to read. Too bad!

I owned this book while in high school. I let someone borrow it and some how never got it back! I looked up the title here and found it for an excellent price and just had to buy it! I am so happy that I did, the book was in excellent condition!
