A great production of an audiobook. Different voices for each character, really fun music in between each monologue and a cool vibe when the monologue contained more than one character. The book itself didn't do much for me, but I'd easily give the audio a five star rating. Different characters f...
The cover leads one to believe that this is a mere picture book of the great Benjamin Franklin and it *is* technically that, but it's much more really. Lavishly illustrated through out, this book is really a surprisingly detailed and rather lengthy and advanced biography. The age/grade range (ages...
The story of the Amistad told through the perspective of a young girl who was a captive and was able to return to Africa. A wonderful work of historical fiction, elegantly written and illustrated.

I think it is so important for kids to be exposed to non-western historical figures and realize, particularly, that the Middle Ages were ...
I will disclose that I've never been a very avid reader of plays; even when they are fantastic, I have a more difficult time getting into them and sometimes appreciating them. It helps if I see or have seen them performed. Additionally, this book was so unique that it was very hard for me to get a g...
