AH –
Awesome Series!
I wish I could write a review for the entire series! I bought these for my 4th/5th grader and had him read them before we went to Boston and New York this summer – we did 6 Cub Sout trails and read about Paul Revere, The Boston Tea Party, Washington, Jefferson, the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, before going…we had to save Gettysburg and Lincoln for next summer though (though we did one of the Lincoln trails in DC 3 years ago). It involved him more in the hikes, he knew what he was seeing, and was able to make a connection and understanding better…which will help with American History in 5th grade this year and his attention deficiencies in school. We read every night as a part of the school reading program and these are perfect for him. The books have helped build his comprehension and improve his reading confidence since being diagnosed with dyslexia.

“The world will little note nor long remember what we say here,…”
This book does a nice job of walking the reader through the life and times of Abraham Lincoln, noting he didn’t succeed at everything he tried, but he kept trying. He saw why slavery was a challenging issue for his country, his time and all the people in it, and he sought a solution that abided by the law of the land, even as he helped work to improve the laws… and the solution.One of the things I particularly enjoyed was how this book pointed out the limited education available to so many at the time of Lincoln’s childhood, and yet he understood if he could learn to read, then he could read about, and learn, anything.

Fun and informative!
My eight year old daughter and I read this series at bedtime. She learned about them at school and it is one of our favorite things to do together. They are very informative and engaging. Others in the series that we’ve read and enjoyed are: Who Was Anne Frank, Albert Einstein and Michelle Obama. This is a really good series for the 2nd/3rd grade student.

Perfect for biography reading lessons or report writing in 3rd/4th gr
I bought these for my third grade classroom. They are great for the biography genre and then to use for report writing. The three years I’ve used them so far the kids LOVED them. Easy for their reading levels, informative, and people they have heard of in their lives. They would read their own and then read other that they had heard of. Could have left these books out 1/2 year and they would have still been reading them.

En 16 pages, tout sur l’essentiel de la vie de ce grand homme (ainsi que de sa famille proche) nous est relatée. Très utile pour LLCE anglais et études supérieures.
