5there lived a boy named Marco Polo.
6He decided to travel eastto see what was over
there.

10Khublai hooked him up with oranges and spices,
and he discovered many types of recipes that
Italians claim as their own now like pizza,
lasagna, and spaghetti.
Youre my boy Khablai. Holla!

11He stayed in China for 17 years only to return
to Italy, after a tough trip back where
pirates stole many of his riches from the orient.
Bee-beep
12Marco was ready to go back home with many riches
but encountered pirates.
13Hand over your riches POLO!
Snap!
14Two years after leaving China, Marco got
back with little riches to prove that he went and
saw so many amazing things.
Bee-beep
15He wrote a book calledThe Travels of Marco Polo
16It spoke of the amazing sights and riches in Asia
17However, the things he saw in China were so
amazing that most Italians thought he was a liar
18They jokingly called his book Il Milionewhich
is Italian for the million lies
Il Milione
19This continued all the way to his death. He was
never seen as that amazing an explorer until
years later.
