Horn Book Review

These biographies offer reluctant or struggling readers short chapters with somewhat choppy texts. The subjects are put in general historical context; the simplified treatments cover major accomplishments and challenges. The photographs and archival reproductions are stock, and the layout is uninspired but accessible. Report writers will find the basic facts. Timeline. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Fact Finders: Biographies titles: Ellen Ochoa, Gloria Estefan, Phillis Wheatley, and Frederick Douglass.] (c) Copyright 2010.
