yes there is. not a bio' but just plain books about him the basic info you learn anywhere else. if you know a library near you than you can get a card there and ask about Leif Ericsson. one fact about him is that his last name comes from his dad, Eric the Red. Eric didn't have a last name so he gave his children the last name erics-son.

What was Leif Ericson best know for.
As was tradition with the Vikings, Leif did not grow up with his family. Instead, when he was eight he moved in with a man named Thyrker. Thyrker was from Germany where Eric the Red had captured him, had taken him to Iceland, but had not enslaved him. Thyrker taught Leif everything he needed to know, including reading and writing runes, the Celtic and Russian tongue, and the ways of trade. Leif was also taught the old sagas, plant studies, and the use of weapons.
