School Library Journal - 04/01/2023 Gr 2–4—This charmingly illustrated biography series introduces young readers to leaders in diverse fields. Before and after reading activities are supplied for caregivers; these include how to close-read a text and how to tap into background knowledge. Minimal text and large drawings tell the story of the individual, from tales of their childhoods to important milestones in their careers. Following the text is a time line of their life, a glossary, an index, text-dependent questions, and an extension activity. VERDICT The friendly style, reader resources, and easy text make this an excellent series for reluctant readers. - Copyright 2023 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
