All of these child friendly biographies feature a well known person (to some people) involved in sports, the arts, science or activism. I have read many of them with or to my grandchildren and hopefully, piqued their interest. I did not read any of these to them, but I enjoyed them. I love learning about new people as well, and these short biographies have definitely had me doing my own search to find out more. I recommend that all school and public libraries carry this series.

All of these books share the childhoods of the person being highlighted, as well as the dreams they had as children. If I were still a teacher librarian, I would have this series in my library.

These animated readings of these stories were all done by Dreamscape LLC and I definitely recommend them if they are available to you. If not, you can also read the books. These are just four of these stories/videos, but there are several others to choose from. These are #4 to #7 for The Non-Fiction Reading Challenge fitting into the Social History Category.

This week, I am highlighting four nonfiction picture books, two from the Profession Series for children and two from the Little People, Big Dreams series. Both series are geared to primary students and they are well done. I recommend both of these series to parents, teachers, schools and public libraries. Each of these books was provided to me by the publisher upon request. The rating and opinions shared are my own.
